UTV Ireland logoUTV Ireland will launch on January 1st 2015 and will be carried on SAORVIEW, Sky, eView and UPC. In common with most companies in 2014 UTV Ireland is also present on social media, including Twitter. Unfortunately they may have made a wee faux pas earlier today:

While the tweet may not have been retweeted that many times the reactions from users were, understandably, quite “interesting”

For example:

If you check the original tweet (linked above) you can see that some of the reactions were pretty strong!

Moral of the story? Be careful with politics and history ..
