No discussion on the plight of Tara

Despite a letter signed by the leading world experts and support from former Taoiseach John Bruton RTE is ignoring the voices thyat wish to preserve the Tara/Skryne valley.

Why is RTE silent when a site that has been proposed to be protected as a world heritage site is under threat from road developers?

Despite being petioned by letter and e-mail RTE so far as ignored a discussion of national importance. Media reports have indicated how "rescue archaeology" has been the order of the day in order to serve the fast tracking of development. This on the back of years of corrupt practices that saw the northside of Dublin turned into an urban sprawl.

Whether people agree or disagree on the issues our national Media should give voice to the concerns that are being raised.
