Seán O’Rourke and Marian Finucane lead the way in JNLRs

Figures make happy reading for RTÉ Radio 1 as veteran presenters increase listenership by 77,000

RTÉ broadcasting veterans Seán O’Rourke and Marian Finucane were the big winners in the latest radio listener figures, with the pair increasing their overall audience by a combined 77,000.

In fact, yesterday’s Joint National Listenership Research (JNLR) figures make happy reading for most of RTÉ Radio 1’s main talent, with only two of the prime weekday presenters recording audience decreases compared to last year.
