Ryanair To Give Away 100,000 FREE Seats for Every False Claim on BBC PanoramaRyanair, Britain’s favourite airline, today (12th Oct) announced that from midnight tonight (24:00hrs 12th Oct) it will release 100,000 FREE seats for every false claim made by BBC Panorama in its ‘hatchet job investigation’ of Ryanair to be screened tonight. Ryanair again criticised Panorama for its refusal of Ryanair’s offer of a live or uncut pre-recorded interview with Michael O’Leary because this did not suit Panorama’s anti-Ryanair agenda.
From midnight Ryanair will offer 100,000 FREE seats for each one of the false claims made in Panorama’s so called investigation. These free seats will allow hard pressed BBC licence payers to escape from Panorama’s false claims, shoddy reporting and cover ups. Passengers can travel on these free seats on Tuesday’s, Wednesday’s and Thursday’s in November and early December.
Ryanair’s Stephen McNamara said:
“BBC Panorama is now clearly on the back foot. Yesterday they falsely claimed that Ryanair was looking for ‘editorial control’. This is rubbish. All Ryanair asked for was an uncensored interview so that Ryanair’s answers were not cut or edited to suit Panorama’s hatchet job agenda.
Today, in another attempt to cover up their failure to give Ryanair a right of reply, the BBC have uploaded the full uncut version of their doorstep interview with Michael O’Leary on the Panorama website. This begs the question why Panorama didn’t want, or wouldn’t agree to, an uncut interview with Michael on the programme itself, which we believe is because it didn’t suit Panorama’s hatched job agenda.
Just to prove that this Panorama programme is rubbish, Ryanair will give away 100,000 free seats in November and December for every false claim made by Panorama tonight. We urge passengers to watch this “hatchet job” on Britain’s favourite airline and then book a FREE flight on www.ryaniar.com from midnight to get away from the BBC’s bias and Panorama’s hatchet jobs.”
