In contrast to the socially [[conservative]] Byrne, Kenny has always been viewed as a [[leftist]] and he has allowed those opinions to color interviews on the Late Late Show. Most notoriously, he once berated Dana Rosemary Scallon, a conservative singer and Presidential candidate, as a "living embodiment of the outdated views that have kept this country in the slime". Scallon extracted an apology, but Kenny has continued to forward his views on both radio and television. In 2003, the RTE Guide voted him the third most influential political radical in Irish history (after [[James Connolly]] and [[Bernadette Devlin]]). Conservative bodies such as The Movement to Save Ireland have worked hard at exposing Kenny's bias.<ref>http://saveireland.blogspot.com/2007/01/httpportland.html</ref>
