Nice Treaty and RTE - Call for Volunteers/Netziens to do day by day Content Analysis to stop cheats

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Saturday October 05, 2002 15:38author by wormholebrothersauthor email irishheads at hotmail dot com Report this post to the editors

RTE have a legal obligation to give 50% of time on flagship news programmes and current affairs programmes to each side of the Nice Debate.

The Green Party have been harassing them to stick to this but there is some concern that it is not being enforced rigourously by RTE. The groups campaigning for a Yes obviously have backup in the form of statistical monitoring of this. The No Groups have not. A few IMCers are trying to get a small group of people together to do day by day monitoring and breakdown of this stuff - people who have free time, VCRs, Cassette Radios and fast internet connections and are interested in helping with this please get in touch as soon as possible at [email protected]. All this stuff is archived on the web so work can potentially be done at any time of the day. The results would be distributed to groups campaigning for a No Vote on a daily basis and if we - for instance - find that on a particular day the NO side got 40% of coverage - the No Campaign Group can use this ammo to make sure they get 60% the next day.

Great idea, this is where a full time office would be useful, but we dont have those kind of resources. The referendum commission ads (propaganda) broadfcast by rte are probally doing the most damage of the lot.

does anyone know if there is a proceedure for complaints against the referendum commission?

The best and most insidious I have heard yet from them was on today FM just before 1pm sunday.

it ran along the lines of : a no vote to the nice treaty means there would be no provision made in the constitution to protect irish nuetrality!!!!!

didn't dev take care of that one at the very beginning?

Barry I dont know if there there is a proceedure for complaints against the referendum commission, but they should be picketed or something to draw public attention to the fact that bertie sabotaged it with a sneak dail attack,with the connivance of the racist blueshirts and their labour lickspittles last december.

They have been spreading their insidious propaganda well before sunday, at least a week ago 2 people I know who voted No last time out, told me they were voting yes in order to have constitutional protection for neutrality and yes they heard it from a 'Ref Com' radio piece.
