I might reframe the question a little. Last year, a number of organisations that concern themselves with eating disorders and health issues made the point that programmes such as "Operation Transformation" are damaging. For an organisation that has a public mandate and is explicitly mandated to operate in the public interest, where is the test of how RTÉ is doing that and who decides what is in the public interest?
