• Resumen

  • The compliance committee of the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland has held that the Irish public broadcaster RTÉ did not violate the broadcasting code’s rules on fairness and impartiality during a discussion on same-sex marriage. The decision arose following a complaint made over a June edition of RTÉ’s “The Marian Finucane Show”, a two-hour radio programme (for a similar complaint recently upheld against RTÉ, see IRIS 2014-8/27).
