RTE.ie Joins the Cheerleaders?

Anyone check out the homepage of news on the economy from RTE today? Aside from the fact that there's not much news since Thursday, they've made Apache Pizza's expansion plans their top story. I can see why they'd want to report something positive, but some stories just aren't top-of-the-page news. A pizza chain creating 100 jobs is one of them. Other stories bear a remarkable similarity to the press releases over at the Department of Enterprise Trade and Employment.

Another item, which shows how consumer sentiment is continuing to tank, is headlined 'survey shows consumers still cautious' - as if that's a strange thing! Has RTE.ie suspended its critical judgement to become a cheerleader?
