Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Context Phase
Mr. Tim Vaughan:
I can only speak on behalf of my own newspaper that I edit. As my colleague, Mr. Murphy, outlined, the proportionality of property advertising in the Irish Examinerwas not of the magnitude that some people might have thought. It was not at 50% or 60% where people might think there might be more pressure. I have never come under pressure from a property developer. There were some issues in relation to an editorial but I do not agree with the view that money can influence the editorial in our newspaper.
