Marty Morrissey’s loaned car for five years was not the one at the centre of a probe during the Media Committee grilling of RTE chiefs during the week.
Fianna Fáil senator, Timmy Dooley, was the one whose line of questioning led to RTE sports presenter Mr Morrissey outing himself as the beneficiary of a car loan deal with Renault for the last five years.
But Mr Dooley told The Irish Mirror that he had no idea Mr Morrissey had a free car and that he was quizzing the RTE top brass about another case.
