North West Today

Available for 22 days

A Donegal woman who spent almost two days waiting with her husband at Altnagelvin Hospital's emergency department says medical staff there are 'stretched beyond belief.' Also on the show, we hear from SDLP MLA Cara Hunter about her decision over Elon Musk's social media site X. The politician, who was targeted in a deepfake video four years ago, has growing concerns over deepfake imagery produced by the site's AI tool Grok. And a local mother who has three neurodivergent children welcomes the launch of the first autistic Barbie.
