RTÉ has declined to comment on fresh reports surrounding an official inquiry into its ‘Mission to Prey’ programme which libelled missionary priest Fr Kevin Reynolds.
A report carried out by former BBC Northern Ireland controller Anna Carragher for the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland has yet to be released (BAI).
However the Irish Times this morning published leaked details of briefing documents it says were prepared for the board of the BAI.
According to the Times, the report “has heavily criticised the standards of journalism involved in the broadcast”, concluding that the programme was “unfair and a breach of Fr Reynolds’ privacy”.
