Quick Glance: Charlie Bird reported on major stories in 40-year career
- One of Ireland's best-known journalists, Charlie Bird, has passed away at the age of 74 after a public battle with motor neurone disease.
- During his 40-year career at RTร, Bird reported on some of the biggest stories in Ireland and internationally, including the Stardust fire, the National Irish Bank tax avoidance scandal, the 11 September 2001 terrorist attacks in the US, and the 2004 Indian ocean tsunami.
- He also became the Provisional IRAโs sole media contact and was often the first to break the news of the many twists and turns in the Northern Ireland peace process.
