Ryan Tubridy getting paid less than he sought from RTÉ while off-air, says Kevin Bakhurst
He indicated that initial talks last month with Tubridy about his potential return to the airwaves were inconclusive, but they have since resumed. He added that there was “an urgency around reaching a resolution now” and that he expected one would be arrived at in “the next week or two”.
When asked if Tubridy had sought more money than RTÉ was willing to pay, Mr Bakhurst said: “Well, this is always the case in negotiations, alright. We’re not offering him more than he wants.” A spokesman for Tubridy said he had no comment when contacted.
