Golden boy Tubridy to step up to the mike in Gerry’s old slot

LATE Late Show host Ryan Tubridy has been chosen as the thin white hope of radio 2fm, taking the seat vacated by the late shock jock Gerry Ryan.

In response to recent reports, RTÉ bosses have pulled the plug on any suggestions that Tubridy is being paid €1 million per annum to fill the 9am to 11am slot.

RTÉ bosses approached their ‘golden boy’ with the new job offer amid fears that Ryan’s hundreds of thousands of 2fm listeners were turning-off or tuning-in elsewhere.
