RTE presenter Eoghan McDermott has hit out at the broadcaster for banning presenters from expressing their opinion on the marriage equality referendum.
The Dubliner waited until voting polls closed to vent his frustrations.
RTE had told their staff that they could air their views on the important referendum.
Taking to Twitter Eoghan wrote:
“After 10. Fuck you RTE with all my beating heart. I hope today you didn’t stand in the way of a stranger’s happiness.”
But Eoghan later took down the tweet, writing:
“Ops. Heightened emotional state! I do believe in a neutral forum for debate, important for democracy to function!”
