Celebrity Big Brother Racism Update...

We had mixed feelings at RWF Talking Software when the news finally came that positively confirmed that the bullying of Shilpa Shetty in the Big Brother house had indeed been racially motivated.

Of course, I’d known it all along. You see, I’ve spent time in the bowels of society and have met the likes of Jade Goody and Jack Tweed all too many times before - even if I was always a fish out of water in those circles. Now, more than two decades later, it still seems that no matter how hard I work and how far removed from these people I now find myself, I still cannot help feel nothing more than ashamed at the behavior of these people.

An apology is going to be aired, apparently. I don’t think that will be worth too much. Just another bit of publicity to add a little bit of fuel to a machine already out of control. I just hope that the powers of be keep a closer eye on this kind of show and the message that it sends to the great unwashed, but I doubt it.
