BBC DJ Fired Over Racist Image of Baby Sussex
Yesterday the Duke and Duchess of Sussex shared a first look at their new baby and announced his name [click here if you missed that].
Not even 24 hours later somebody already got fired for making a racist remark...
BBC Radio 5 Live DJ Danny Baker was fired after sharing this image on Twitter shortly after the Baby Sussex reveal.
Baker initially offered a weak apology insisting the image would only be perceived as racist by someone with a diseased mind.
But as the backlash grew he began to have second thoughts but by then it was too late.
