Declan Lynch: Claire Byrne's Newstalk return promised us 'fun', 'personality' and 'opinion'. We got Micheal Martin
"If broadcasting talent can be compared to furniture, they've been shifting it around in RTÉ and Newstalk like they were running an Ikea distribution centre. Another piece of the furniture was set down in the Newstalk studio this morning, when Claire Byrne moved back to her old radio home on The Claire Byrne Show (Newstalk, weekdays, 9am-12noon), replacing Pat Kenny."

Broadcasting talent has been frequently shifted between RTÉ and Newstalk, compared to furniture moved through an Ikea distribution centre. The pattern reflects repeated personnel reshuffles across the two stations. This morning Claire Byrne returned to Newstalk to resume hosting The Claire Byrne Show on weekdays from 9am to 12noon. The move places her back in her former radio role. Claire Byrne’s return replaces Pat Kenny in the mid-morning slot and alters the station’s daytime presenting lineup.
