Irish police investigate @stephenfry over 'blasphemous' comments - where does this sit with free speech?
Police in the Republic of Ireland have launched an investigation after a viewer claimed comments made by Stephen Fry in an RTE TV interview were blasphemous. Officers are examining whether the British comedian committed a criminal offence under the Defamation Act over the comments he made in 2015. He later said he was not "offensive towards any particular religion". Vinny got the views of commentator Fionola Meredith and David Smyth from the Evangelical Alliance.
