The RTE News Editor was in a quandary. Two stories, but which one to broadcast as a lead on the flagship News at One programme.
The first story concerned dramatic revelations at the Mahon Tribunal that could have far reaching consequences for our country and could even bring down the Government.
The second story concerned a minor development in a bank robbery that occurred nearly four years ago in another country.
The editor opted for the second story.
