The Issue
BAFTA and the BBC to identify responsibility, and apologise to the Black Afro-caribbean community, for allowing a racial slur to be aired, despite the-2hr lag allowed for post-production editing time, where other considerations were edited out. Or does this community’s feelings not matter?
