Free to Air Appendix Two Frank Byrne Free to Air Appendix Two Programme and Interview Transcriptions Frank Byrne Appendix 2 Liveline 060509 THREAD A Dur: 57’48” (Sting 1850 715815 music) JD 1 Hello, good afternoon and you’re very welcome to Liveline . I’ll say it at the start, thanks to everybody over the last three weeks since the accident, especially to Damien O’Reilly who stood in (if you pardon the pun) at very short notice on Holy Thursday into this seat and to the team that battled on bravely and brilliantly. I’ve had a chance to listen to the programme. Above all to all the well-wishers and the people who sent me cards. Now, another person from RTE, a colleague here – well a colleague just to about an hour ago – George Lee, has been dominating our phone lines. 51551, text and [email protected] . Tommy, good afternoon. Tommy 2 Joe, good afternoon. JD 3 Your politics first? Well, your party politics, sorry, if you have any? Tommy 4 I was an active member and a candidate for FG for 12 to 13 years, programme manager with Jim Mitchell, a special advisor to Gay Mitchell in the John Bruton government; not a member now and I’ll be going out canvassing tonight for Vincent Jackson in Ballyfermot. JD 5 Would you canvass for George Lee in Dublin South? Tommy 6 I absolutely would and Joe, before we go any further, welcome back. JD 7 Yeh, its great to be back. Tommy 8 It really is…it’s a fierce shock…. It was a fierce shock when we heard the news, ok? You’re in our prayers and we were thinking about you. I’m delighted to hear you back on the airwaves. JD 9 I really appreciate that. You know that, don’t you? Gladly canvass for him? You would. Why, if you’re not a member of FG? Tommy 10 I rang in to Liveline the minute I heard the one o’clock news. I was hoping you were going to cover it and I was asking the production team to cover it. I thought it was necessary that Sean put it to George about his reporting and his job in RTE and the national profile that he had, particularly in the last six months when this country was going down the tubes and I’m not talking party politics here when I say that. I work with the health service at the moment and, Joe, you have no idea the impact it’s having. It’s having an incredible impact on services and, not only that, we’re told, the only 2 thing I believe from people in Fianna Fail (FF), and I don’t want to be smart, I don’t want to be political to the point of being insulting, but we are told by them and by the economic people that this six months is only a flavour of what is to come in the next two years and we have the EU Report yesterday which confirmed. Coming back to the point, Sean O’Rourke put it to George that was he not thinking about this. Was he not approached five years ago, six years ago blah, blah… I think that George Lee has been one of the saving graces in this country from the point of view of keeping us informed accurately about the economy and that. I am delighted he has decided to stand. I’m delighted he’s standing for Fine Gael (FG) although I wouldn’t have been too upset if he had stood for, say, the Labour Party but it would have given him a position in opposition in the country if he is elected. He’s standing in one of the most difficult constituencies in the country that has elected.. topped the poll with Garland of the Greens; threw him out; then George Colley’s daughter stood; topped the poll; was kicked out. JD 11 Is it fair to say that it’s slightly disingenuous of George Lee now to say (He’s obviously become a member of FG in the last hour or so)…. It was about six weeks ago on this programme, we got calls about a contribution George had made – once again extremely articulately, extremely passionate and he made this point on the Late Debate , presented by Fergal Keane that night. Do you think when George Lee was saying what he said on the Late Debate that he had any intention of joining FG? Let people make their own minds up. Lets listen to it. Lee (tape) 12 It gets more and more serious by the day and this is the same rubbish we’ve been getting from the beginning. We don’t know a thing. We still don’t know a shaggin’ thing and we now know that the bankers are quite capable of cooking the books and pulling the wool over everybody’s eyes and we’re sitting here bailing them out left, right and centre and its so annoying to hear the type of language that they’re at.. We want to bloomin’ know. We’re the ones footing the bloomin’ bill. JD 13 This was the day when Brian Lenihan admitted that he hadn’t read some sections of the Price Waterhouse Report. Now, do you not think that FF can say that they were duped all along? That someone who was Economics Editor of the national broadcaster has declared for FG? Tommy 14 He’s declared for public politics. JD 15 No, he has declared for FG. Tommy 16 Exactly, the opportunity has come up there, I mean, Joe, and listen to these words I’m going to say to you. The reality is the opportunity has come up there. If someone from FF said ‘good morning’ to me, I’d check my watch ‘cos it’s probably the afternoon and they don’t know where they 3 are anyhow. The reality is…. No, listen…., the reality is we have a situation. Everyone is talking about Brian Cowan inherited the situation from Bertie. He was the Minister for Finance for four years. JD 17 (Attempts interruptions) Tommy 18 That in reply to the question you put to me in relation to what George said on the Late Debate , this is what we’re talking about. We’re dealing with a situation. I heard George Lee saying that the banks bailed out the builders and developers and the government bailed out the banks and now the people are being taxed to bail out the government and Richard Bruton repeated that phrase in the chamber. The reality is… JD 19 Did you participate in asking George Lee in 2002 if he’d stand for FG? Tommy 20 I did. I met George at that time. It was before 2002 when Jim was involved with the DIRT Inquiry for the previous five years – for three years, sorry. George was keeping a close eye on that and remember, himself and Charlie Bird had been involved in looking at the banks. JD 21 And what did George say when you asked him? Tommy 22 You don’t ask people. I didn’t go to George Lee and ask him if he was standing for FG. On a number of occasions I was in George’s company…..on two occasions. One occasion I asked him about the offer that Charlie McCreevy…. About the savings project and I said, “George, is that good?” and he said, “It’s money for nothing” and I heard what he said. The second time I spoke to George in Jim’s company and Jim looked at George… they were talking about the DIRT inquiry and I indicated to him afterwards when I was walking out. I said, “George, would you ever consider taking this up and standing in public life and he looked at me and I said, “I’m serious – we’re looking for candidates?” Now, he may not have taken that as a direct offer. JD 23 David Bolger then Izzy O’Rourke. David 24 Hello, Joe. I’m totally in cahoots with the gentleman who’s just been on. I’m down in Wexford but I believe that George Lee is a fantastic candidate to be stepping forward and somebody of the ilk that we need in this country to be stepping forward for these instead of the usual FF nepotism and sons, daughters, cousins, aunts uncles etc. that come forward – “Oh well, he did it, my uncle so I’ll go forward”! Somebody with a degree in economics, severely lacking in the government at present – barristers, teachers etc. but nobody with the skill we require at the moment and economics is one of the big skills we require in this country. JD 25 Ok, Jim Connolly is on the line. Text 51551. Jim is in Clare 4 Jim 26 Good afternoon. JD 27 Go ahead, Jim. Jim 28 Well, I have no gripe with George Lee whatsoever but I certainly can’t agree with the last speaker. My point is that any presenter on RTE, or national radio, gets a higher profile for the job. That goes with the territory. Neither George nor anybody else can be labelled in any way as abusing his position or whatever. So my proposal, quite simply is this; every RTE presenter’s contract should contain a line that would prevent them going into public politics in particular in a democracy within 12 months of their leaving their job. JD 29 Why? Jim 30 And I think that would probably sort the whole issue.

  • A Semiotic Analysis of RTÉ Television News
    Critical Social Thinking: Policy and Practice, Vol. 2, 2010 School of Applied Social Studies, University College Cork, Ireland Whose Frame Is It Anyway? A Semiotic Analysis of RTÉ Television News Mark Cullinane, BSocSc Abstract This article serves as an exploration of the extent, if at all, to which RTÉ Television News disproportionately embodies the attitudes, beliefs and assumptions of particular worldviews. Using a multiplicity of theoretical paradigms, the project sought to examine to what extent RTÉ News output could be considered ‘system-maintaining’ or ‘system-challenging’, and to detail the means by which the ‘preferred meaning’ of news- if one exists- is generated. Informed by the framework of framing/agenda- setting theory and semiotics, a combination of analyses were chosen and applied to uncover latent meanings embedded within news texts. A small selection of news texts concerning the nationalisation of Anglo Irish Bank in January 2009 comprised the data sample. The textual analyses revealed a strong preponderance of system- maintaining frames; frequent editorialising; an absence of competing discursive positions; and a heavily episodic orientation that focused on personalities and near- term sequences of events rather than broader systems-level analysis. Keywords: mass communications; semiotics; framing; television news. Critical Social Thinking: Policy and Practice, Vol. 2, 2010 Introduction 'Communication is too often taken for granted when it should be taken to pieces' (Fiske, in Hartley, 1982, p.xiii) The idea that the mass media possesses power over its audiences is not a new one, indeed, it has become a cliché. Identifying the precise nature of this power, however, is not an easy process.

This was not always the case. Women in particular were excluded from many areas of public discourse. Reaching back into the 19th century, the distinction between public and private spheres was an ideological one. As men moved out of the home to work and acquired increasing power, the public world inhabited by men became identified with influence and control, the private with moral value and support.

  • Reconciling Ireland's Bail Laws with Traditional Irish Constitutional Values
    Reconciling Ireland's Bail Laws with Traditional Irish Constitutional Values Kate Doran Thesis Offered for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Law Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences University of Limerick Supervisor: Prof. Paul McCutcheon Submitted to the University of Limerick, November 2014 Abstract Title: Reconciling Ireland’s Bail Laws with Traditional Irish Constitutional Values Author: Kate Doran Bail is a device which provides for the pre-trial release of a criminal defendant after security has been taken for the defendant’s future appearance at trial. Ireland has traditionally adopted a liberal approach to bail. For example, in The People (Attorney General) v O’Callaghan (1966), the Supreme Court declared that the sole purpose of bail was to secure the attendance of the accused at trial and that the refusal of bail on preventative detention grounds amounted to a denial of the presumption of innocence. Accordingly, it would be unconstitutional to deny bail to an accused person as a means of preventing him from committing further offences while awaiting trial. This purist approach to the right to bail came under severe pressure in the mid-1990s from police, prosecutorial and political forces which, in turn, was a response to a media generated panic over the perceived increase over the threat posed by organised crime and an associated growth in ‘bail banditry’. A constitutional amendment effectively neutralising the effects of the O'Callaghan jurisprudence was adopted in 1996. This was swiftly followed by the Bail Act 1997 which introduced the concept of preventative detention (in the bail context) into Irish law.

  • Journalism, Politics and the Celtic Tiger Journalists
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by DCU Online Research Access Service Chapter 8 Declan Fahy A limited focus? Journalism, politics and the Celtic Tiger Journalists dominated the 2009 end-of-year bestseller lists with books castigating Ireland’s financial and political elites for causing the financial crisis that would eventually claim the country’s economic sovereignty. In The Bankers Shane Ross criticised bank executives and regulators for their close relationship that facilitated years of reckless property speculation, while in Who really runs Ireland? Matt Cooper laid out the elite nexus of bankers, developers, politicians and media owners that he argued allowed a thriving economy to overheat. In Ship of Fools, Fintan O’Toole traced the entwined Irish histories of economic mismanagement, political corruption and financial fraud that combined so disastrously in the crisis. In Follow the Money, David McWilliams described a panicked Irish government amid the 2008 global financial meltdown, as then finance minister Brian Lenihan, eating garlic to stay awake, paid a late-night visit to the columnist’s house for advice. In Anglo Republic, Simon Carswell forensically examined the succession of high-risk financial decisions by Anglo Irish Bank executives that forced the government to guarantee bank debts and deposits. These books unflinchingly laid out the national systemic political and financial failure that found apt symbolism, among international media, in the half-finished ‘ghost estates’ that littered the Irish countryside. 190 These post-crash books were cutting and critical. But such comprehensive analyses, commentators noted, were mostly absent during the boom years, from the mid-1990s to the mid-2000s, when Ireland’s economy expanded with unprecedented growth.

Hines Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.salve.edu/pell_theses Part of the English Language and Literature Commons, European History Commons, Film and Media Studies Commons, Women's History Commons, and the Women's Studies Commons Her Voice on Air: How Irish Radio Made Strides for Women’s Rights By Emilie Hines Prepared for Dr. Madeleine Esch Department of English, Communications and Media Salve Regina University May 11, 2020 Hines 1 Her Voice on Air: How Irish Radio Made Strides for Women’s Rights ABSTRACT: Radio is the voice of the people; this is no less true in Ireland, a nation that prefers talk radio and phone-ins. These formats were popular from 1970-2000, formative years for the feminist movement. Scholarship suggests a correlation between radio and women’s issues in Ireland but does not answer what elements create this. Here, I analyze 10 archival radio clips from Ireland’s national public service broadcaster, RTÉ, looking at how women’s issues are framed. After analyzing these clips, I found that Irish identity embedded in the shows allows for the discussion of controversial ideas. Radio promotes an inclusive environment, by dispelling shame and encouraging political conversation among women. This allows women to hear and be heard, creating a space for equal representation. Introduction As I was sitting on a bus from Dublin airport back to my apartment in Cork City, I heard a late-night radio show playing on the bus speakers.
