    I have noticed the last few mornings that their topics for discussion are all AH Threads Titles..
    Thought it was a coincidence and then this morning's was 'Strange things you do', which was a recent thread


    Is this a regular thing with radio stations?

    I have noticed an increase in anti-Dave McSavage opinions around Dublin which I presume are stolen from After Hours.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    Yeah I've read on here about this happening frequently enough. I remember someone saying that 98 were talking about one of the threads (I think it was the Stingiest People one?) and were even reading out post. Phantom were reading out posts from the Hottest Election Candidates thread this week too!

    They existed before the internet.

    On two recent occasions topics have been referred in the Sunday World aswell....although surprisingly nothing has been mentioned about how much of a tool Paul Williams is.

    And all the bother we go to making the podcasts... :P

    No, this isn't unusual. Not too much we could do about it though I would guess. Except for making sure every thread title is really boring

    I noticed that hottest election thread topic getting a mention in the metro earlier in the week alright. Then again... they don't really report much.. more so write what they think they've noticed on other websites...

    ... Anyhow, the problem here so is that there's sh|t presenters on the radio who can't come up with their own gimmick and reporters that use another guys joke as a freacking story...

    can we sue?

    No?

    then who cares, there's no money to be made from it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,060 ✭✭✭✭biko


    AH treads can only improve radio.

    That will definitely be the next topic of conversation on FM104 for some weeks to come.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,626 ✭✭✭timmywex


    Ive noticed beat 102-103 doing that aswell!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    The Adrian Kennedy phone show did this about a year ago and that chap Jeremy he has in the studio with him to stop ripping off things you're seeing on boards.ie.

    Brilliant.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,094 ✭✭✭✭javaboy


    If any of you lot from the TV without pictures want to steal use any more of our topics for discussion, please be aware of the nominal fee of €100 per post quoted and €1000 per thread. Payable to me in wads of cash.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    Of course the real problem is people listening to FM 104 in the first place. That's a cack radio station altogether.

    Adrian Kennedy if you're reading this then you're a lying *******.
    When I was a kid I used to ring your phone show competition for a swatch watch and you told me to keep trying and I'd win.
    Well guess what? I didn't.

    And as an upshot I now hate gingers.

    Thanks

    No worse than Radio Kerry down here. People only listen to that in the hope that the death one of their rich relatives is read out in the family notices. They should cut the crap and call it "Inheritance Radio".

    Agree its a shit station, but I flick through them all in the morning as I cannot bear the adds and Ive lost my CD Case:(

    Actually just seeing the thread there 'Best biscuits for dunking' was being discussed my way home last nite too..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,814 ✭✭✭BaconZombie


    Newstalk about ALOT of stuff from Boards and I've seen while a few Metro "articles" that look just they were either copy from Boards or used boards as source material.

    What's even more scandalous is that a lot of AH thread ideas are stolen from news/radio/tv.

    EDIT-

    Oh god!!!!

    Where do these ideas even come from?

    :eek::eek::eek:
