Over 200 complaints were submitted to RTE following Friday’s Late Late show.
One of the guests, Dr Eva Orsmond was discussing poverty and health in Ireland.
When she was telling Ryan Tubridy about cancer risks in different parts of Ireland, a map appeared on screen.
However viewers took issue to the fact that Nothern Ireland had been edited out of the image.
Some took to twitter to comment on the controversial edited picture.
