| 1640486778141327364 | @kierancuddihy @ShaneHannon01 Really poor comment. You think this was a win for journalism? You have proven what is wrong with the media today in those 3 words. One can have an opinion today, providing it's the correct view. Otherwise the media will try to ruin you & cancel you. #DiversityOfOpinions | 71 |
| 1639342567677476864 | “It only takes one to win the Olympics and then it spoils it for people.” @soniaagrith joined @kierancuddihy to discuss World Athletics decision to ban transgender women from female events. #TheHardShoulder https://t.co/gIbdu6U86a | 55 |
| 1640476929588428800 | @kierancuddihy @ShaneHannon01 I mean what she tweeted about literally happened Kieran. Do you support the rape and murder of 12 year old girls? I'm so confused by this hatred towards Kellie. https://t.co/WmGcxH387b | 13 |
| 1640474391719956480 | @kierancuddihy @ShaneHannon01 Was it really? Seems like he was trying to bully her into making a statement. What she said at the time was fair, given the horrendous nature of the crime against a child. Are you implying she should be quiet about it? Was Shane trying to get her sponsorship cancelled..? https://t.co/J84E1YY4Bw | 11 |

| 1640463911383097345 | @kierancuddihy @ShaneHannon01 You’re right! How dare she shine a light on the increase of violence towards women in Europe due to mass immigration! She should be more like you and Shane and embrace this enrichment! https://t.co/00ILIUaYqk | 7 |

| 1640465479000264705 | @kierancuddihy @ShaneHannon01 "Handled" - he was the interviewer! Repeatedly asking her a question about a tweet 5 months ago, instead of about sport or the initiative she was promoting... Will this be the norm for interviewing anyone who comes on the show if they dare display any deviance from groupthink? | 167 |
