Analysis of RTE Rogues
In the realm of RTE's greed,
Unreported monies and deals took seed.
Funded by sponsors and public tv license,
A secret hidden from auditors and viewers, kept in silence.
Shysters raking in the dough,
Working for RTE you know!
Treat yourself to a Reno,
An undisclosed benefit at RTE you know!
The public's trust 'twas betrayed,
RTE reputation and integrity left unmade.
Auditors and viewers alike, demand answers,
The truth must be exposed, no more chances.
Shysters raking in the dough,
Working for RTE you know!
Treat yourself to a Reno,
An undisclosed benefit at RTE you know!
An investigation is underway,
To uncover the truth and bring justice today.
The public awaits the answer they deserve,
For the truth it will ultimately serve
Shysters raking in the dough,
Working for RTE you know!
Treat yourself to a Reno,
An undisclosed benefit at RTE you know!
