Ivan Yates appeared on RTÉ just days before last November's general election and dismissed Sinn Féin's chances. The national broadcaster highlighted his downplaying of Mary Lou McDonald's party as a programme highlight. Pearse Doherty singled out an appearance by a spin doctor that took place shortly before the campaign's start. A national broadcaster statement said Yates did not disclose his association with Fianna Fáil at any time. The reporting links the appearance to wider coaching activity around Micheál Martin's party during the general election period.
