Pat asked for an example of a Trophy House , Jack gave it to Pat, Pat felt stupid , got angry and sore. Pat asked for it and thanks to Jack he got his answer. No need for Jack to apologise . If you ask questions expect to get answers some you may not like.

It's obvious that Jack O'Connor was nervous and failed miserably at an attempt to inject some sort of humour in to the situation. Pat, as a supposedly professional interviewer, should have recognised this and passed it off in the humour that it was meant and could have quite easily moved on rather than take the approach that he did. Jack O'Connor did apologise for the remark when he realised that Pat didn't share the 'humour' of his comment and (Un)Professional Pat should have acknowledged this

Did you see how quick he was to react when he was mentioned in having one of these "Trophy houses" but if he wasn't mentioned he'd be sitting there in agreement, albeit being a hipocrit at the same time!! Rediculous!

The figure in the Tribune on sunday was €120,000. Listening to Jack on Friday the man was brilliant, he said it as it is, that it is not about public versus private but about getting the top 5% to own 40% of the wealth to pay their share and take a fair share of the burden.

Pat Kenny's unjustifiable salary is possible because of ordinary taxpayers money. RTE is funded by both private ad revenue and tax money (via TV Licence). It should be one or the other, not both. It's what makes RTE the bloated, unimaginative, political and nepotistic organisation that it is.

Jack o connor is so out of touch. he talks of an alternative to making up the 4 billion needed but when asked to expand on it turns out there's no substance to his argument. Then he goes on about the 7 percent already taken as if it's the worst thing that could happen while in this current climate (which happens to be the biggest downturn in the history of the state). Get real would you..200,000 or so added to the live register in the last year. how many public/civil workers included there??

@1tomdooley "Might I remind you, it wasn't the public sector workers who caused the recession . . " - That ignorant remark just typlifies the public sector mentality in Ireland. The public sector Gravy train in Ireland is over, and thats the best thing to come from this crisis. The croke park agreement will make the savings and then the Gov will quite rightly take a long overdue scalpel to it and cut the wasters out. The public sector and their vested interests ruined this country.

The SIPTU boss presumed that Kenny has an enormous house just because he's rich. That's a bit like some arrogant poshie like me making a throwaway remark about (for example) Fatima Mansions to a tradesman just because of his working-class accent. And that SIPTU man earns more than my dad.

Can I just say, Pat Kenny's salary isn't "just under a million", it's €630,000 p/a, which is still a huge amount admittedly, but people should at least get their figures right before attacking him. Plus, Jack O'Connor's salary is €124,000 p/a, so he's hardly entitled to take the moral highground on trophy houses, and can empathise no more than Kenny with the people who are affected by the recession the most.

its so annoying for pat kenny,marian fanucan and other rte elites complaining and sympathising with real sufferers of this recession like for example i heard pat kenny recently go on a rant about how public sector wages might be going down and he's nearly getting a million a year. absolute hypocrits! you can understand a doctor or lawyer earning lots cause they studied hard and work hard jobs but what hard labour does pat kenny actually do to earn this kind of money????
