Sinn Féin TD Ruairí Ó Murchú raises concerns about the Zionist Lobby exerting improper influence over the type of content Ireland's new media commission will censor. "I suppose if you deal with the issue and the slaughter that's going on in Gaza at this point in time, you'd always have a fear that particularly when you're talking about on some level American-owned companies and whatever else, that certain views may be more accepted than others." "I suppose we don't want a difficulty where we have an element of one-sided censorship (for want of a better term) and we need to make sure all reasonable political views can be expressed reasonably, and we don't have a case where certain flaggers are trusted beyond others, and we've seen, for example, a pro-Zionist lobby that's incredibly powerful and has serious reach online. So, I would hate to see that that would have an impact." 👉🏻Join Late Stage Ireland
