It’s been revealed that RTE’s current affairs department spent 60 thousand euro on travel costs for its “Mission to prey” programme, which libeled Ahascragh priest, Fr Kevin Reynolds.
The Irish Times reports that the overall cost of the programme was 184 thousand euro, which is more than the 137 thousand recorded in the BAI Anna Carragher report.
A spokesperson for RTE says the BAI figure quoted did not include staff salaries of 22 thousand and other costs.
