The chair of the NUJ Dublin Broadcasting Branch expressed the frustration felt by staff at the "grubby picture" of RTÉ that has emerged from the Public Accounts Committee (PAC).

Speaking on Morning Ireland, Emma O'Kelly, a journalist with RTÉ, highlighted the contrast in pay and treatment between regular staff and what is referred to as 'talent,' which only fueled more anger and stress among employees.
