Damien Tiernan WLRFM

Im commenting on it. A lot of people have noticed how strange it is that somebody who was such a prominent member of the team just vanished overnight with no mention of it whatsoever. It would be like Tommy Tiernan suddenly presenting The Late Late Show.

When you leave a job the remaining staff don't spend their time talking about you. It is not strange that the people in WLR don't mention somebody who left the company, regardless of the circumstances of her leaving. It’s actually a bit weird that you think they should be talking about her!

Questions could also be asked about all the changes in the news room since Liz left and even the sudden death of Billy McCarthy. For years it was Liz, Sinead Ahearn, Mark Power or Anthony McFeely. All of a sudden there is someone new coming in. Have heard Nigel Kelly and Gavin Whelan from the sports team even read the news from time to time. Other days it is a case of bringing in someone for a day here and there.

Rick Whelan has a job for life in WLRFM because of his surname, despite the fact that he is at best a very mediocre DJ. In any other job where his brother isnt an owner he would be out on his ear.

Who knows whats going on behind closed doors. The management may have a feel for a certain person or people, they may want to try a few new directions but quickly dump the people involved when it doesnt work out.

Another girl used to be very good at reading out the news Sinead Ahern, havent heard her in ages too.

I had a run in with this group probably a year ago.

Totally unprofessional & complete amatuers.

Yes she worked a lot on Waterford at 8, which was an hour long show about current events and sport in Waterford, it was a good laugh at times.

There's a load of episodes of Waterford @8 on YouTube. Interesting to see how much the city has changed since early 00's

Some people are likely not aware Damien Tiernan appeared in a video on a poltical parties facebook page to help promote an upcoming protest.

The ongoing protests in parts of Dublin over migration everyone has their own views as its a divisive issue.

However a radio show or tv talkshow presenter such as Damien Tiernan should be neutral and Impartial in any issues relating to politics by the very fact appeared in that video he has shown he is not neutral.

I cannot recall any Wlr radio presenter appearing a political party video to help promote a particular cause or particular protest; like imagine during the repeal referendum which was divisive if a local Wlr radio presenter appeared in a poltical party video promoting a yes vote or a no vote; such a move would of shown the presenter wasn,t being neutral.

You have a lovely manner lad....

'Sparking up hatred' ?

which side drove a car into a peaceful protest?

Here, you're talking rubbish! You are interoperating that poll to your idiotic beliefs.

That doesn't say 83% of people are in agreement of you're anti refugee views, it just says 83% don't agree with the current policy and 83% of people are actually uneducated because we don't have an "open door/ unlimited refugee" policy. That's fact!

For anyone who reads my actual post I didn,t express any " anti refugee " view; I referenced a recent poll this week.

Facism/racism - just different/buzz words to use instead of "Groups of people that can see taking in unlimited amounts of foreign nationals (not all are refugees) will not work for a country with a housing and hospital crisis that isnt being dealt with by their government"

Some people prefer to use sensationalist wording though .....

Funnily enough all the people I know who are part of those "groups of people" happen to be rampant racists. Just a coincidence? You can try all you want with your faux concern about the Irish homeless and healthcare etc but all right thinking people know exactly what the root of your protests are. It's the same with the far right all over the world, our Irish fash are no different. The mask has come off publicly aswell in the last couple of days with you lads celebrating the arrival of unvetted military age criminal Tommy Robinson on our shores. Know someone by the company they keep

When lads start mentioning "wokeism" you know it's time to step away from the argument 🤦🏾‍♂️ get yourself out of the rabbit hole and get a life for yourself, it must be miserable down there constantly unearthing new conspiracy theories. Over and Out.
