In his research Dr. Mercille says that between 2000 and 2007 there were 717 "Prime Time" programmes in total. He said that only ten of the programmes had segments dealing with the housing boom. He goes on to say that in those ten programmes 26 guests appeared, 11 from property or financial sectors. What would the criteria need to have been for RTE as a public sector broadcaster, to have done more programmes over that period to deal with the housing bubble?
