BBC Fires Host ‘Danny Baker’ For Racist Tweet On Royal Baby

BBC Sacks Host Danny Baker For Mocking Royal Baby Sussex 

BBC host Danny Baker was terminated after he tweeted a racist image of a monkey wearing a bowler cap following the main picture discharged of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s baby kid. 

The tweet demonstrated a picture of a couple clasping hands with a chimpanzee wearing garments with the subtitle: “Royal Baby leaves hospital”. 

The 5 Live moderator has been impacted as a racist however says it was every one of the one unfortunate mix-up. He at that point cried about his terminating on Twitter

“The call to fire me… was a masterclass of pompous faux-gravity,” he wrote.

“Took a tone that said I actually meant that ridiculous tweet and the BBC must uphold blah blah blah. Literally threw me under the bus. Could hear the suits’ knees knocking.”

Once again. Sincere apologies for the stupid unthinking gag pic earlier. Was supposed to be joke about Royals vs circus animals in posh clothes but interpreted as about monkeys & race, so rightly deleted. Royal watching not my forte.
Also, guessing it was my turn in the barrel. pic.twitter.com/86cQGbAhDc

Here we go.
Opened door, grinning Mail hack.
“Do you think black people look like monkeys?”
Any other time you’d knock someone right on their arse for saying that.
No mate. Gag pic. Posh baby chimp. Alerted to circs. Appalled. Deleted. Apologised.
He asks again! #MailonRacism

Baker has been a staple in the British media for quite a long time. He is as yet announcing his honesty.

“All I can do is make light of what’s happened to me in the last 18 hours,” he said per The Mirror.

“I blushed that anyone could have thought [racism] was the intent behind [the tweet]. Intent has got to be everything,” he added, claiming he had been wanting to make a statement about class with his original tweet.

See some reactions below :

Danny Baker (a man I’ve worked with in the past) knew full well what that tweet was suggesting. No comedian in their right mind could overlook that, that’s not how our brains work. We see a joke from every angle. He knew it was racist, thought it was funny and posted it anyway 👍🏾

I’m really confused about the message that #DannyBaker (@prodnose) was trying to convey? You had 3 other chances to post that photo when George, Charlotte and Louis were born but chose to post it now? You are not silly or ill informed! You my dear are a #racist! Pure and simple!

I trust now that the BBC has sacked Danny Baker they also wont give any time to massive racists like Tommy Robinson and Nigel Farage pic.twitter.com/zRsT9vdVLT
