Just to further this trivial point. This news article is from the Irish Times and they seem to have the knack of locating E acute. They are also an Irish newspaper and yet, they spell Saor Eire (I don’t know how to put the acute on the E) consistently without the acute.
As I said, the acute seems like a trivial matter and I am old and very well aware of the sensibilities on both sides of the border.

Is the acute a trivial matter in French?
I find the reaction here to this very interesting. You continue to call it what you wish, I’ve already linked to a breakdown of why the term is incorrectly used and especially in the context of political conversations.
