RTÉ hires caveman to caption pics

“Words make pic good,” Rocko was heard to say, before slamming his club into Pat Kenny’s fruit danish. It is thought he received media training from the guy who has been writing the polls on the main RTÉ page for the past while. An RTÉ spokesperson said: “Maybe we should have started him off on something less demanding of sensitivity and, er, grammar, than the discovery of two bodies in a river. But our HR policy is sound. Without it we would never have unearthed Ryan Tubridy.”

Are the actual screen captures?

If so, they changed it to “River Shannon” then “Two men drowned”.
