    From what I can see every radio station is up ? Really ? How’s that done ? Fake News ?

    From the Sunday Times (most of it is behind a paywall)....

    Corruption expert Elaine Byrne sues Tipp FM over Michael Lowry claims



    The European Commission’s Irish expert on corruption has launched High Court defamation proceedings against Tipp FM over interviews with local TD Michael Lowry and his solicitor.

    Elaine Byrne, who is a barrister and newspaper columnist, wrote a 2013 story in the Sunday Independent based on a recording of a conversation between Lowry and Kevin Phelan, a land agent. The story prompted a Revenue investigation into Lowry that culminated in the Tipperary TD being convicted last year of tax offences.

  • From Tipp FM news
    *********************
    The proposed acquisition of Tipp FM and its sister station Clare FM by Radio Kerry Holdings will not be proceeding.

    The move was first proposed earlier this year but is not now going ahead as negotiations between both parties ended without agreement.

    Tipp FM Managing Director Liam O’Shea says the deal was given every chance to proceed – however he has ambitious plans for the station.

    Looking at the Clare FM/TippFM website where it says owners are Radio Kerry Holdings.The deal must have been close to being sealed.




  • Tipp FM remains the most listened to radio station in the Premier County.

    The latest JNLR – IPSOS – MRBI listenership figures have been released with 85% of people in Ireland choosing to listen to radio for an average of 4 hours each day.

    According to the national survey this compares to 53% using social media and 29% of the population who buy a national newspaper
    Tipp FM has maintained its listenership stronghold across the Premier County with over 67,000 people listening each week.

    People are also choosing to listen to Tipp FM for longer periods with a 2% increase in Market Share.
    But looking back to the JNLR survey of May, they had 71,000 listening each week..

    I see the morning chat show is now finished at 11..I would imagine that would be one of the most listened to shows of the day,I wonder why they cut it by an hour..It seems the hour between 11 and 12 is pre recorded...I also read former Tipp FM boss Paul Byrne was inducted into the IMRO Radio Awards Hall of Fame,and he will stand down as CEO of radio Kerry at the end of the year..A great achievement to get the IMRO Award..

    Big weekend for TippFM . No doubt

    Tipp FM[...]70,000 people tuning into the award winning station each week.
    I was curious about the listenership trend history. I put the figures below in case anyone is interested.

    Date reported by Tipp FM - Listeners per week - trending up or down
    Jul. 2016 - 63k - n/a
    Apr. 2017 - 71k - up
    Oct. 2017 - 67k - down
    Oct. 2018 - 65k - down
    Feb. 2019 - 68k - up
    May 2019 - 71k - up
    Aug. 2019 - 67k - down
    Oct. 2019 - 69k - up
    Feb. 2020 - 70k - up

    It will be interesting to see if the current upswing can beat the 71k peak reached in 2017 and 2019. The bigger challenge will be to maintain the increase.

  • Just before covid arrived they were looking for a programme manager/content creator/presenter..That is probably on hold now because of less money coming for adverts..They may leave things they way they are,because 12 to 2 is not live..That presenter is with Clare FM..The lunch time guy now does 2 to 6,and shades of green with a change of presenter from 6 to 9,and I dont think the show after that is live..
