A Society without Satire

with one comment

…is a society without soul.

And, distressingly, it seems we’re getting dangerously close to it. First the BCI uphold complaints against Nightlive, and now RTE are made apologise for this.

Sad day. Sad, sad day.

Where’s the feelgood factor from being the sporting kings of the world if our leaders seem to be going out of their way to bring the mood down?
