Sounds like the usual pathetic RTE attempt to get listeners.
If you feel strongly then send complaint. They have to reply.
Making a Complaint to RTÉ
RTÉ exists to provide quality public service programmes on radio and television. The public pays a licence fee to receive these services. The standards we set for ourselves can be found in our Programme-makers' Guidelines.
If members of the public are of the opinion that a programme or a segment of a programme has breached the Guidelines they are entitled to express their views and complain either in writing or by e-mail.
Initially the complaint should be addressed directly to the programme or the relevant department if known (e.g. News and Current Affairs, Radio etc.). If the department is not known please contact RTÉ Information Office for assistance. Complaints by email should be emailed directly to the programme's email address or to complaints@rte.ie.
RTÉ is committed to responding to all reasonable communications concerning programme content. It is RTÉ's policy that all complaints should receive meaningful replies which attempt to address issues raised in complaints.
