Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Context Phase
Mr. Tim Vaughan:
As I said earlier, there is no homogenous media. It might come as a surprise to some people that editors rarely, if ever, talk to each other. Newspapers do not co-operate. There is very little co-operation. In fact, I think the only time in my 14 years as editor of the Irish Examinerthat all the newspaper editors were in one room was when the Press Council was being established and launched, and even then there were some editors who wished they were not in the same room as some other editors. It does not happen.
