Data gathering
An annual survey of women’s voices on the main current affairs programmes of State and commercial radio. The survey was conducted in March 2012 as part of research for the NWCI submission to the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland (BAI) for the draft Code on fairness and objectivity in news and current affairs. Data shows that Ireland's current affairs programmes are everywhere dominated by male voices as presenters, expert guests, in headlines, sports and business.
