    In fairness it was RTE coverage that provided the impetus here, but their apology to Cowen is very worrying.

    They mentions it, then get a slap on the wrists and then shut-up. This is very bad by RTE.

    Clearly RTE's senior management has all the backbone of a jellyfish.

    TBH I found it in extremely poor taste.

    Its not often I am on the same side as FF

    - but I think if it had been Mary Robinson or Hilary Clinton RTE wouldn't have gone near the place sniffing for a story.
