RTÉ HAS brought a High Court challenge to a decision of the Broadcasting Complaints Commission (BCC) that the station infringed its own taste and decency regulations by using a graphic of a Bible and rosary beads in a television news broadcast about the Ferns report into clerical child sexual abuse.
