Board of Deputies Vice President Amanda Bowman has reacted to “extremely disturbing” footage of TalkSport presenters failing to call out antisemitism live on air.
Amanda said: “It is extremely disturbing to see footage of two TalkSport presenters failing to challenge an antisemitic caller, particularly as both presenters have been vocal about the need to confront racism. We hope that TalkSport will give these presenters the opportunity to address this live on air, making clear that they should have confronted such blatant anti-Jewish racism and pledging to do better in future.”
