Default Has the African American community voiced any outrage yet over Negro word use?
I wonder what the feeling is if it's one of outrage or they simply think he is just a dumb old man.

Well these things go online quickly and there is 5 live of course. I have watched some of the US ones so sure some African Americans will watch this show also.

Why would there be outrage. Ken is an oap and didn't say it in anger, he just conjured up a brain fart that was dealt with in a civil manner by an equally out of touch OAP. No major dramas there \I fear

That's because black people use it synonymous to "bro" or "dude",

whereas most white people who use the word use it to offend or demean.
