Ratings
Morning Ireland is the top rated radio programme in the Republic of Ireland, with a listenership estimated by the Joint National Listenership Survey to be 467,000. It has been on the air for over 25 years, and is considered the most influential news programme on Irish radio. When ratings for the radio shows of prominent RTÉ broadcasters such as Joe Duffy, Pat Kenny and Gerry Ryan were declining in 2005, Morning Ireland remained Ireland's most popular radio programme. It was at one point rivalled by The Full Irish in second place before that show ended.
