Podcasts must be included in planned new broadcasting regulations designed to cover radio and television. The current proposals contain an imbalance that should be relooked at in light of controversy around Ivan Yates training Fianna Fáil's presidential candidate, Jim Gavin, while also co-hosting the Paths to Power podcast.
