Angry TDs have questioned why RTÉ effectively excused Director General Dee Forbes from attending Oireachtas committees by asking her to resign on June 16.
Chair of the RTE Board Siún Ní Raghallaigh admitted that this fact was not considered when RTÉ asked for and later accepted the resignation.
The Oireachtas Media Committee heard that there was a “silo culture” in RTÉ where nothing was questioned if Ms Forbes signed off on it.
