And on failing to investigate Martin Daubney’s show, where he used the word ‘tranny’, the Ofcom spokesperson said: “We carefully considered complaints about this programme.
“While we understand the clear potential for offence, our assessment found that the brief use of this language was, in our view, employed to provoke debate, *and was likely to be in line with audience expectations for this channel and show*
We did not consider that an investigation was warranted.”

Going by this standard, if I created an explicitly racist TV channel and called for a certain race to be shot (to provoke “debate”), that would be fine because it would be in line with audience expectations for said channel?
A hyperbolic example, but come on. This seems ridiculous..
Wow… GBNews are vile. And Ofcom are beyond corrupt
That’s a headline Eric Cartman would struggle to conceive of, and he fed a kid his own parents
Absolutely disgraceful.
And shame on people yet to see how despicable and vile GBNews is.
I’m struggling to see how this is not a call to action, which has landed many people in jail recently
Bet if I said the same thing on social media I’d have police knocking on the door.
Gbeebies tweeter feed mentions this not at all, I would have thought their vindication would have been trumpeted in CAPS LOCKED.
Remember this the next time these cunts pretend to care about anyone but themselves.
It was a joke. I thought we had free speech for a very long time?
This isn’t just an off the cuff comment from GB News, this is what they want to do to us with the reforms but it doesn’t sound as bad in policy speak.
