Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf?
If the wolf is represented by a potential legal action by a multi-gazillionaire businessperson, then it seems that RTÉ are very much on the side of cowardice.
Last Monday, before Des Bishop’s Election aired, the comic tweeted…
If there are no jokes about Denis O'Brien on my election show tonight it will be because they were edited out of fear.

Well, now that the General Election is done and dusted, Bishop has tweeted the joke that RTÉ prevented from being broadcast.
Censorship is alive and well.
This joke about tax and Denis O'Brien was cut from #desbishopselection due to litigation fears. pic.twitter.com/QLF1jKumis
