Am I the only one who hardly watches Irish TV/media (news and entertainment)?

    I don't hate Irish TV/media or go out of my way to avoid it but it's just that I don't have much interest aside from a few good documentaries e.g. 'Better off Abroad' on RTE or Niall Boylan on 4fm. Perhaps it's because I've lived in the US during my early years.

    It's generally a mixture of CNN International, BBC News, Russia Today (Max Keiser specifically). Mostly I watch news as entertainment. Documentaries and conspiracies are my thing mostly.

    For music, I never listen to the radio except talk radio which a lot of people don't seem to like. Niall Boylan seems to be pretty good, IMO..

    What type of media do you consume?

    Niall, I have to be honest. I'm not a fan.

    I honestly never tune into RTE or any of the other Irish channels, nor do I listen to their radio stations, I listen to Q102 in the car. I'd watch the news more than anything else and tend to watch BBC News for that. I find the Irish news when I have checked in to see what it's like to be far too local and it just seems to have an unprofessional feel to it.
    If I'm watching something with my partner we'd most likely watch a boxset from Sky or something through Netflix and yes it does irk me that I have to pay for something I don't use nor want.
