Carol Thatcher Dropped From BBC For Racist Remark

Carol Thatcher, daughter of former British PM Margaret Thatcher, is out at the BBC’s The One Show after she was overheard referring to a tennis player as “a golliwog.” In British slang, a “golliwog” is a racist term for a black person. Although Ms. Thatcher later apologized in writing, the BBC indicated that her contract will not be renewed.
