Meet Mícheál Ó Scannáil the new presenter of RTÉ's news2day

RTE's news2day aims to tell children the big and little stories that shape their world
Meet Mícheál Ó Scannáil the new presenter of RTÉ's news2day

Mícheál Ó Scannáil and Aisling Moloney present news2day, RTÉ’s news service designed specifically for children.

AS a child, Mícheál Ó Scannáil used to avidly watch RTE’s news2day. Little did he realise that he would one day present the news programme which is designed specifically for children. For Ó Scannáil, his new job is a dream come true.

The show returned to our screens this week, and although Mícheál had to face some tough criticism from his young nephews who wanted to see even more of their uncle on TV, the Wexford native is really enjoying his broadcasting debut in the 10-minute daily segment.
