Look at how Joe was able to negotiate with RTE up front no side deals needed,
I think he was a Gas Ticket and a true blue Dubliner,

There is a rubric amongst those who design financial services retail products that goes "does it meet the Joe Duffy test?". There will be a big gap in our consumer protection framework.
Though he was a populist - for example he got stuck into the Boss for speaking the truth which in this case was favourable to the banks (I forget the details).

Hi Duke
I don't Listen to the Joe Duffy Show,I never have I was working around the time he was on air,
I might walk into a house or be in a car when his program was on,
I loved the way he managed people who phoned in how he let some get away with blue murder knowing full well the complainiing will sooner or later prompt an opponent to ring in,
if he thought they were above there station he would give them enough rope to hang themselves Joe pulls the leaver and leave them dangling,
I did not see the program you are referring to, You must remember Joe has a vested interest in keeping the phone calls coming which might not be a bad thing really,no phone call is ever routine nor should the be taken as such people going trough a rough time may not be thinking straight,
one thing I admired about him even if I did not agree with him, He Was Always Gentle On People Who Rang His Show something I always admired in people dealing with the public,
many a item that needed to be highlighted might never have see the light of day if Joe bit the head off people who rang his show,
It not like askaboutmoney where over several days/weeks other posters and the OP posting can interact and if they are in the wrong
sooner or later someone will point out where they are wrong,
How often have you seen something getting posted and it taken several days before someone points out to the poster they may have unreasonable expectations, in other words other posters point out to them that reality doesn't measure up to there expectations,
we don't get on to the boss for allowing it to get posted and if we did the boss would do a Joe Duffy on it,
Without joes Dublin Wit,
Duke have you anyone in mind to take over from Joe,
the pay is good,
