I agree, people can betray obviously racist attitudes and other bigoted attitudes (our own government, for example?) without using any of the "naughty words" and it goes unmentioned, but if someone happens to let slip a "buzz word" without actually displaying any racist or discriminatory attitude it's jumped on in seconds.

I'm not saying he isn't an idiot. I just can't abide double standards, or people not bothering to look more than a millimetre beneath the surface. There is racism and other forms of discrimination to be tackled. It generally doesn't come in the form of people "using the N word OMG OMG OMG OMG". Its much more sinister than that, and people are blinded by this sort of tabloid trash.

If the vile mirror was an actual newspaper the real story would be who leaked this 2 years later and what was the motive?

He said he tried very hard not to say this word, mumbled the offensive bit and then recorded the whole thing two more times. Then begged BBC not to broadcast it and then was forced into a cringing apology.

BUT WHY SAY IT IN THE FIRST PLACE..... You moron !!!

Clearly he wanted some sort of controversy over this and he got his wish. This is all about keeping his name in the headlines.

Well this time the BBC have to ask him to leave as the public are tired of his racist comments. As a role model he should know better and clearly he thinks it's OK to come out with this ****, it isn't and therefore I think its time for him to go.

..it was always a controversy too far waiting to happen..and that's probably far too many words than a thread about him deserves...

It was over 2 years ago

Of course its a withchunt but he still has to go. He's had too many chance already and this is simply not acceptable.

The presenter who has a habit of sparking diplomatic fires has admitted the BBC have put him on his final warning.

The broadcaster won't accept any more gaffes, the Top Gear presenter revealed in his latest newspaper column.

Jeremy Clarkson admitted he will be ousted by the broadcaster if he makes another offensive remark, after claims he used the n-word while reciting the nursery rhyme Eeny, Meeny, Miny Moe during filming of the BBC2 programme.

I found his excuse for the racist expletive he made toe-curling to say the least.

[Nedusa]

No more excuses no more second chances, he needs to be dropped by the BBC now.

He has used up all his lives.
