In recent years, the landscape of media in Ireland has undergone a troubling transformation, with a significant portion of the press and media becoming conduits for misinformation, including RTÉ and the Irish Times. This shift has raised alarm bells among citizens and experts alike, as the distinction between credible journalism and fabricated narratives blurs. A staggering 64% of the Irish population expresses concern over the prevalence of fake news, highlighting a growing distrust in the very institutions meant to inform the public.

Reports indicate that over 13 million posts on social media platforms have contributed to the spread of false information, creating an environment where discerning fact from fiction becomes a daunting challenge for the average reader. This crisis not only threatens the foundation of democracy but also undermines public confidence in the media, prompting urgent calls for accountability and reform within the industry.
