McRedmond closes door on appointment as RTÉ director general via IrishTimesBiz
It comes as RTÉ chairwoman Siún Ní Raghallaigh prepares for a hearing on Wednesday of the Oireachtas media committee about the recent leaks relating to the board’s delayed appointment of a new director general.“I was grateful for their support. I did an interview on March 13th with the chairperson and two directors of RTÉ and was informed by the recruitment consultant the following day that I was not being shortlisted,” he said. “I accepted that decision.
“I also have a personal grá for the organisation through my late father and late sister who both worked there. I wish RTÉ well in its appointment of a new director general. There seems to be excellent candidates and I hope they proceed swiftly.”
