DJ sacked for playing racist song 11 Years, 2 Months ago

After the farce where Clarkson was made to apologise for possibly saying something which was never broadcast, an elderly DJ has now been sacked for playing an 82 year old track by Ambrose & His Orchestra - would he have got away with it if he had played the JK version instead?

www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-27360884

Has anyone counted how many times the N word is heard on rap programmes on Radio 1 without a single complaint?

The Mail gets what it wants, yet again. Had the BBC defended the DJ, the Mail would have gone berserk. Had sacked him, the Mail would have gone berserk. The BBC never has a chance in such cases, and has been left a gibbering wreck. All the other papers know it, and do nothing.

A "candy coon" was a type of sweet. In SA they still sell sweet Nigger Balls which are the same as Jawbreakers. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.
