Turvey Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Has anyone heard this classic Christmas time this year on Radio 2? Or have the offended won? https://www.devonlive.com/verdict-calls-fairytale-new-york-2308595 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Y Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 They do it every year with this song. I'm sure the BBC radio channels actually just blank the words anyway and have been doing for a few years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonro2009 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Really boils my ***** that this comes up every year, without fail. We live in a world in which people go out looking to be offended, there is no hope for future generations at all. There is an excellent comedy sketch about being offended, link below. The text below is a post on a local Facebook page, it appears to have upset a couple of snowflakes and the comments have descended into anarchy...... “Good deed done for today 👊. This morning at Tesco check out I was behind a lady in the queue. Her bill came to £56.83 but when she counted out all her change she only had just under £50. I thought she was probably someone’s Gran and I’d like to think someone would have helped my Gran out if they seen her. She didn’t want me to help her but I insisted, and in no time we had all her groceries back on the shelves. 💪” 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke4efc Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Prime example of how the media make stuff up for the sake of a story. They say people get offended, possibly by quoting a tweet. However when you actually search Twitter that's the only tweet in existence that is going on about the song... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
