Ray D'Arcy Show fails to uphold fairness in relation to abortion in broadcast.

The Broadcasting Authority of Ireland has found that the RTE programme “The Ray D’Arcy Show” has breached the requirements of the Broadcasting Acts for fairness, objectivity and impartiality in news and current affairs.  The programme in question was an interview with Colm O’Gorman of Amnesty Ireland.
Responding to the decision which was released on 9/12/2015, Sinead Slattery of the Pro Life Campaign said:
“It is no surprise that a number of people pursued official complaints against RTE in relation to this particular edition of the Ray D’Arcy Show. The public are entitled to hear both sides of the story on the abortion issue.  It does a grave disservice to listeners when the state-funded broadcaster pushes one agenda.
