Ireland’s media regulator has paid out €83 million in public money to broadcasters, newspapers and journalists since 2023.

Virgin Media. Irish Times Group. Iconic Media. Hot Press. The Journal. The list goes on.

Meanwhile Gript gets nothing from the State. And People Before Profit refuse to answer a basic Gript question on the Triple Lock, then answer the same question instantly for an Irish Times journalist.

When the State writes the cheques, editorial independence stops being a given. This needs scrutiny.

🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: During Mexico vs South Africa, the referee had to keep the players waiting during the cooling break because FOX was still on a commercial break.

The match eventually resumed while FOX was still showing advertisements.

These cooling breaks are not related to player health, but are instead used to accommodate commercials.

EXCLUSIVE: "I expect you to treat this with urgency" - In emails seen by Gript, Norma Foley was warned by a teacher about the book 'What's The T?' as far back as 2023 - though she continued to deny all knowledge to Gript this morning:

"Outrageous": @Ben_Scallan grills Children's Minister Norma Foley after RTÉ promoted a book instructing under-16s on how to engage in explicit activities:

"I don't know that book, I'm not familiar with it -"

"Minister, I actually emailed your office about this ahead of time."

Thank God this was a 5pm kick off. Definitely would have fell asleep if it had been an evening game

[Mark Goldbridge @markgoldbridge]

Horrible way to lose a final but I suspect Arteta will think that 25% possession and one shot on goal wasn't really the way to approach that final.

[Danis @DanisMCFC]

Well well well…
PGMOL title.

Just look at this from the photographer Donal Harrison with the brilliant caption "when you score a huge goal, win Leinster and Nan slips you a sly 50 on the pitch". 😭😭

I was confident I could of played a major part this summer for my country after the season I’ve had. I’ve been left shocked and gutted by the decision.

I’ve loved nothing more than putting that shirt on and representing my country over the years.

I wish the players, all the best this summer 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Arsenal beating Burnley 1-0, after scoring from a set piece, and having the most blatant VAR decision go their way, sums up their title to perfection.

[Lemon @Lemonbriz]

🚨🎙️ Roy Keane on West Ham’s disallowed goal for a foul on Arsenal’s Goalkeeper David Raya

"I tell ya what, that VAR decision is a complete and utter disgrace – an absolute joke!

All season long Arsenal have been crowding the goalkeeper on set-pieces, pushing, shoving, blocking – it’s been their main tactic from day one. We saw it clear as day against us at Old Trafford when Saliba backed straight into Bayindir, stopped him from making a proper save, and they nicked a goal through Calafiori. Nothing given. Not a murmur. But now, in a massive title-deciding match against West Ham, when it doesn’t suit them... suddenly it’s a foul on Raya? Are you kidding me?

What the hell are we even watching in this league anymore? It’s shameless, it’s embarrassing. At this rate just hand the title and the trophy over to Arsenal now, because it’s glaringly obvious what they’re trying to pull. Total, utter disgrace."

An Arsenal fan booked a Budapest hotel for the UCL final LAST summer for almost nothing 🧠

Genius move… until he posted the reservation number online and a Spurs fan cancelled the booking 💀😭

Luis Enrique and the PSG backroom staff celebrating their fifth goal in the final in front of Mikel Arteta will feel like Christmas coming early

Less goals than Richarlison this season

The full four absolutely chaotic minutes at the end of normal time.

Lesson: Never listen to anyone that tells you there’s no point arguing with a ref because they’ve never seen one change their mind
