Tubby Mc Tubbycash

Someone in management authorised the job cuts AND the extra secret payments to Tubbers.  Those who suffered pay cuts and those who lost their jobs while Tubbers was secretly getting ~50k extra a year might not think it's a storm in a teacup.

It will all be forgotten about next week or even sooner if some A-list celebrity has a Major scandal, like breaking a finger-nail.

Wait until we see is there any more of these "Barter" accounts for hiding income for any of the other Super Stars,there's a good bit to run on this yet.

The media likes nothing better than to turn on it's own.  Look at today's Indo website now (5.20pm):

1. Ryan Tubridy apologises for never asking questions about RTÉ publishing wrong figures for his pay
2. 'Devastated, ashamed, betrayed and angered’ – RTÉ staff demand answers on who signed off on Ryan Tubridy’s pay
3. ‘I’m under no illusion as to my good fortune’ – five times Ryan Tubridy talked about his pay
4. Liveline callers divided: RTÉ and Ryan Tubridy debacle attracts anger and support
5. Ryan Tubridy tried to bow out before he ‘burned out’ – but timing of decision to step down from Late Late is certainly interesting
6. Up to Ryan Tubridy whether to hand back €345,000 in extra payments from RTÉ, media minister says
7. Fionnán Sheahan: RTÉ lied to us and Ryan Tubridy appears to be paid so much he doesn't notice the extra cash
8. RTÉ scandal goes way beyond Ryan Tubridy - board-level ignorance is never an excuse
9. Oliver Callan says RTÉ scandal is ‘sprinkled with shambles’ as he sits in for Ryan Tubridy
10. Explainer: What's the problem with Ryan Tubridy's RTÉ paycheque?
11. The Indo Daily - EXTRA: RTÉ and €345,000 of hidden payments to Ryan Tubridy

Right now, it's all about getting Turbidy - they haven't even mentioned that Dee Forbes has been suspended even though she only has a week or two left on her contract.   

And wait until you read the Sunday papers

Unlike us Taxi drivers who are united in comradery and support each other !

See social media has coined a new financial salary transaction a "Tubsidy"

If the brown envelope payments were not visible for tax then Tubby stickleback will be slipping down a wormhole.Question is was it declaired?

There is more to this .RTE use to be the Governments mouthpiece but its now run by Liberal Pinkos .Big changes on the way .The TV licence fee will be divided among all the TV stations based here .Things have changes since RTE or BBC were state broadcasters .Tubbs will get paid off head to England .The Dee Forbes thing was brilliant as she is suspended she cannot be asked to return to work to give an explanation .The writing was on the Wall when you cannot watch GAA matches on RTE but can pay to see on SHY Sports .

Will an Post get a mention in all of this ?Were they the Corporate Sponsor .Remember when the Late Late use to hold a draw for a Renault car and you had to send in a Post card  Hundreds of thousands of entrants at a euro a stamp .Did An Post pull whatever deal on advertising they had because RTE were looking for the Tax man to collect the licence fee taking the gig off of An Post .The lad running An Post was the bookies favourite to get the Director Generals Job but didnt ?
