Councillor takes action over YouTube video

A CO LEITRIM councillor has initiated legal proceedings against one of the internet’s most popular websites, YouTube, after a video was posted online depicting him as gay.

The video shows Fine Gael councillor Enda McGloin and local businessman Hubert McCormack hatching plans to open a gay bar in their local town, Drumshanbo.

Their faces are also superimposed on Village People-style photographs.
