I'd trust the information I get online before I'd trust the information coming out of any of their mouths. We need transparency not one-sided propaganda from our news broadcasters. We need journalists to be journalists, not government puppeteer journalists.
It's their editors that determine what story gets aired/published, and the editors are paid by the government. So there's a conflict of interest; if they publish truthful articles that go against the government's views or mandates they'll get defunded. If they want to get paid they publish what the government wants aired.
Dont give any details to TV license men , you dont have to answer your door to anyone, by giving information you can grant jurisdiction, dont talk to them at all its a scam...
@@thewexican1095 it's not complicated at all. If you want to hear the illegal immigration arguement from someone who knows what they're talking about listen to the interview that the brilliant Ben Scallan did with Dr. Mehari Fisseha.
Your just saying what the older generation has said about sinn Fein yet there the ones who put us in this mess voting in puppets... So your comment about sinn Fein is false because we don't know until they are elected in.
5:59 it is about other forms of public service broadcasting. What he's not saying is 85% of the TV licence fee is going to RTE. I don't listen to local radio nor do I watch any rye TV or rte radio but they want me to pay for it anyway. It's like forcing me to pay tax for a car I don't own.
That's tax though. I pay tax for a dole payment I never receive. Or for a Garda salary I've never needed. Or a fire fighters equipment I've never seen used. Or a social house I'll never live in. Not using a service funded by taxation isn't a reason to remove the service, as you've said. Having said all that, I agree TV License is about 15+ years out of date, but for more reasons than just "it's a car I don't own."
You can't say you'll never need the gardai or the fire service , social housing occupants mostly work, and pay tax sorry to inform you but I guess you'll argue about that too, how you can put RTE into the same bracket as firefighters and law enforcement I cannot fathom lol @@AdamHetherington
It's not only the tv licence that needs to be scrapped, property tax & car tax should be scrapped & a whole lot of other unjust charges including VAT & toll charges!! 😡
RTE is the most worst broadcasting company ever in the whole EU, was told that even Ukraine has much better broadcasting that provides more channels to watch than RTE has.
I noticed neither of them said anything about wrong/biased/narrated information from any media. It surely CAN take a lot for a politician to dig a hole for themselves!!
@@punchy1325 Yes, like the shinners are a bunch of communists and Fine Gael are NOT a centre right party and independents will do very well in the next general election kinda stuff. Hyperbole is used all the time by party politicians, it's easily understood and easy to recognise by most people...
Well said! I get the impression that even the weather forecast on RTE is not true and may not turn out to be true, let alone all the rest of the media propaganda on any subject that is important for the future of this small country on the edge of Europe, where we legal and hard-working easterners, who pay tributes and taxes, have never been entitled to practically anything!
Not going to pay for TV license especially when saop box just next door can watch the exactly same thing that I am on my TV on their small device's and don't need to pay for a TV license just because they don't have a bigger screen device that is called a TV but I have to pay for a TV license just because my bigger screen device is called at TV and not a iPhone, ipad or tablet or laptop, the public should challenge the minister responsible for media and TV license laws being not fit for purpose of today as the way media and other entertainment programmes are being streamed on line on multiple different technology device's and not just on a single device called a TV.
Germany, France, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, and many other EU countries do not have any TV licensing as its very much all funded by the exchequer of the country so why cannot Ireland have the same thing, because An Post investors don't want to lose their slice of the cake.
Absolute cheek of this guy.. Giving his croneys millions at our expense. Livid that I.. We have to give these entitled people money, making them rich beyond what we could ever be.. Absolutely disgraceful carry on altogether.. Vote this government out.. They obviously don't care about you or me.. 2000.200 million for a hospital so. They're the ones who should be in court
Not to mention the shockingly bad shows they produce. The same talentless faces doing the same shows over and over.most shows are basically a glorified presenter roaming the streets with a camera man. Sick of seeing news on for 18hrs of the day followed more news
@natalieroy7589 do you mean hand it over 🤔 read your first comment again, and remember who pays tax in this country so everyone won't be paying? Will they what do you not understand
The way it's set up, the TV licence is an unfair penalisation. If paying for a licence was really for better programs then there should be an 'opt out' if those programs are not up to standards and people turn off RTE. Instead RTE should be a fee subscription service and let their standards of shows and news features determine how many people subscribe to it.
Does she think that's what she should be talking about after keeping her mouth shout on everything else going on .... She is wasting tax payers money by taking a wage for doing notting other then look top up her bank account ,
Referendum to take the word "Mother" out of our constitution which recognises the great work Mothers do bringing up their children and that no Mother should be forced out to work because of financial straits" How beautiful is that, so many Mothers would love to stay at home with their kids but it needs husband and wife to work full time to oay mortgage. Very sad. We should be working to follow our constitution and build houses for Irish first. 2nd Referendum is about recognising that "the family" will become any "durable relationship" (truples, pedos, weirdoes)? Also a TD said on rte that this amendment was for famiky reunification of immigrants to bring any amount of family, like the whole village? So vote NO NO
SCRAP THE TV LICENCE, AS THE BBBC MUST FIND AWAY OF PAYING FOR ITSELF, LIKE OTHER CHANNELS DO . WE ARE LING IN A COST OF LIVING CRISIS AND £169 PRICE HIKE IN APRILL IS UNFAIR, AS IS THE CURRENT CHARGE. WE THE UK ARE THE ONLY COUNTRY HAVING THIS UNFAIR TAX ON PEOPLE WHO HAVE BOUGHT A TV AND WATCHING PROGRAMMES.
Leo the liar, mary the liar, mick is just a fame hungry desperado... not one of them are fit for purpose.. and neither is RTE....., let it sink, time for change and not one of the above should be involved.
No funding to the RTE is the way to go. A publicly funded broadcaster should not be allowed to generate additional income from advertisement. Also, a pay cap should be introduced at RTE, at the level of workers employed with other publicly funded organisations.
What proportions of these RTE severance payments are pension payments and how much are lump sums? Is it all lump sums and no pensions? It is all so unclear.
They are voting with their feet Mary and will not be voting SF with your open border policy, yous are the same or probably worse than what we have now.
Scrap the tv licence in Ireland and uk.. Stick it on ppv then those who want to watch their programs can do by subscribing to it..the rest of us can be left in peace.
No TV Licence. No State support. Cut off the transmission sector and run like State bodies with a single function. Privatize RTE and cut them off from the State and treat them like other TV stations. Nationalise the transmission system on an independent body. State support should be banned.
You dont need a tv licence in uk if you dont watch bbc they have no have adverts they get their money from tht tv licence rte has adverts that should cover their costs
I won't pay it because I don't watch RTE or listen to RTE. It's that simple. Why should I fund a company where 365 days a year I don't tune in to any of their content? I have no issue with RTE continuing but TV in the year 2024 should be subscription based and subscription based only.
Lol Leo .. your the ticket 🎫 You waste of space ,cut there crazy salaries and your own and we would have no problem Pay through the exchequer And with a 450k pay of that says it all. …
Scrap this government and sell out Sinn Fein
Can’t wait for both of these smug politicians to be voted out, your Dublin constituencies has had enough!
It's Dublin that is voting in all these left wing looneys that are destroying the country.
Scrap leo
Ditto, scrap the whole house 😮😅

Scrap RTE, NO MONEY FOR PROPAGANDA

It's far more complex to prevent mass immigration were bound to the echr laws that not only apply to immigrants but to you me and everybody!

Can everyone get a refund 🤔
there is nothing whatsoever that i want to watch on a tv
arrogance stems from the knowledge of no accountability &and no accountability stems from sleeping in the same bed as government
They charge you twice: on a Tv Licence yet you must see advertisements every 5min. So they just have easy life....
Sinn Fein trying to win brownie points cause they know deep down they’re no different from FFG
The world is a stage and same goes for Gangster House.
Worst .Free houses for anyone from all over the world.And reduced taxes😅
Totally agree with you there they sold us down the swannie
Your just saying what the older generation has said about sinn Fein yet there the ones who put us in this mess voting in puppets...
So your comment about sinn Fein is false because we don't know until they are elected in.
Scrap the rte in general and we'll be golden.
No TV.
No TV tax.
No Gaslighting.
No TV studio "emotional & factual manipulation".
No prepared news stories that leave out key facts.
Be free people.
All we need to do it switch the TV off. The worst invention mankind has ever done
RTE is awful. Sell Montrose, invest in small and medium production companies and graduates
Maybe if those at RTE were properly held accountable people would support it until then no tv licence
As well as scrapping the TV licence the nation needs to scrap Mary Lou.
You provided an amnesty’s to all the bond holders and developers
Scrap this so called Irish government who allegedly represents its people.
Who is paying their Tellievision licence. I'm most definitely not paying mine . Ryan Tubberdy is paying mine.
"I dont believe in tax amnesties" LMAO when it comes to the public!

Funding Public Service Broadcasting is a euphemism for Government State Broadcasting Propaganda which is exactly what RTE is.
Totally & then they expect the people tonoay for their news propaganda.
They ve always had that in rte
If they didn't have RTÉ how would they programme the masses? Only the boomers are left now, the rest are awake.

Definitely scrap the TV license
Sell the Shinners for scrap.
