Karen Coleman talks to the Sinn Fein MEP Lynn Boylan about Taoiseach Leo Varadkar’s media comments in New York about the Irish media this week.
The Sinn Fein MEP says the Taoiseach should set up a commission of enquiry into media ownership in Ireland. And the Dublin MEP says he should establish supports for investigative journalism to amend any negative impressions he may have given about his views of Irish journalists.
The European Parliament just recently debated press freedom and the safety of journalists in Europe following the murder of an investigative journalist in Slovakia. They previously highlighted the murder of another investigative journalist in Malta last year.
