Watchdog backs RTÉ star’s complaint over radio ad
Ms Thomas, who presents RTÉ’s Television’s No Frontiers travel show, had fronted an ad campaign for Eircom’s broadband. But a radio ad by rival broadband from Magnet referred to her without her consent, also calling her “a blonde girl from a travel show”.
Yesterday, the Advertising Standards Authority of Ireland (ASAI) upheld her complaint over her appearance in the commercial without her consent.
