Norris pulls out of hosting Browne show

DAVID NORRIS was due to stand in as a guest presenter on the Vincent Browne programme on TV3 tonight, but has pulled out because of the controversy engulfing his presidential campaign.

A spokesperson for the station said one of the senator’s supporters made contact shortly before 4pm yesterday and they “came to an agreement due to the circumstances”.

He had been due to choose his own panellists and decide his own subject matter for debate. But the spokesperson said that proceeding with the programme was “not appropriate at this time”.
