If Virgin Media want the Irish taxpayer to fund all of their home produced programming then they should be subject to the same scrutiny as RTE will be. They should be audited by the Irish Comptroller and Auditor General and accountable to the Public Accounts Committee. They should also be forced to reveal the salaries of their top talent.
