"Chaos! Chaos right now! Twenty-five-thousand people are out of work." - WABC presenter John Batchelor speaking to IRN from New York city earlier this week. He was talking, of course, about the Lehman Brothers. The investment giant's collapse has sent shockwaves around the financial world - and the unfolding crisis has been at the heart of IRN's coverage.
We broke the story to UK commercial radio listeners at 1900 on Sunday. Sky News Radio had nothing on the story until an hour later. Throughout Monday breakfast, we then delivered fresh reaction and analysis in QUALITY every hour, as details about UK job losses emerged. We brought you voxes of Lehman workers in London, President Bush, plus a raft of City experts and distraught employees.
Then came the Lloyds TSB-HBOS take-over. On Wednesday, as the story brewed, IRN sent out a total of 55 money stories, including 35 different clips. We also processed bespoke audio on HBOS for our Scottish clients.
