The Broadcasting Authority of Ireland (BAI) has written to Communicorp following its decision to ban journalists from The Irish Times. Communicorp own 5 radio stations licensed by the Authority. Two national services, Newstalk FM and Today FM; two music-based services operating in Dublin city and county, 98FM and Spin 1038; and, a regional, music-driven service for the south-west, Spin South West. The BAI say they are concerned with the editorial independence of each station.
