Radio station censured over ‘offensive’ material

A RADIO station has landed in hot water with the Broadcasting Complaints Commission (BCC) after airing two “offensive” broadcasts.

The first complaint against Cork's Red FM concerned a July 20 programme where the presenter discussed a message from a male listener, who complained his girlfriend never changed her underwear.

Presenter Victor Barry proceeded to speculate on the smell which would result from this, said he would throw the woman out, and referred to her as "a bitch".
