Apparently you can’t even talk about race anymore, without fear of attack. Talking about slurs, not directing them at anyone is now even offensive. Too bad for those trying to resolve issues rather than propagate division.
CHICAGO (CBS) – Former Republican Congressman Joe Walsh was kicked off the air in the middle of his radio show on Thursday, for using racial slurs during a discussion of the Washington Redskins controversy.
Walsh took to Twitter to vent his frustration after he was cut off in the middle of a discussion over the Redskins nickname, in the wake of the team being stripped of its trademarks, because federal law does not allow trademarks that might be disparaging to individuals or groups.
“Just got kicked off the air until further notice. Tried to have honest discussion about racist terms and management censored my language,” Walsh tweeted.
Walsh said management at WIND-AM cut him off with commercials after he used racial slurs while discussing the Redskins nickname.
