Is being responsible for broadcasting this song an offence worthy of losing your job?

I think not, I'm a big supporter of the BBC but the DJ concerned should not have been allowed to "fall on his sword".

    insane, it's a song from another time, the dj probably didn't even know the verse was there

    trouble is that some fuckwits think they can edit reality to make it conform to their ideal

    On the other side you have "actresses" who seemingly aren't that well known instruct solicitors to potentially sue the corporation for dodgy comments which was probably missed by the majority of the audience

    That said i feel the dismissal was not proportionate but seems to shine a light on the fear that resides in the BBC about offending any one except our serving troops

    I don't find anything offensive about dead enemy combatants

    If only the DJ had owned the rights to one of the BBC's most popular TV programs, Top Gear, for example…...
