The ABC’s Q&A apologises to Andrew Bolt for ‘racist’ slur

THE ABC last night apologised to Daily Telegraph columnist Andrew Bolt over claims from Aboriginal academic Marcia Langton on Q&A last week that he was racist. Host Tony Jones made the apology for comments accusing Bolt last week of racial vilification during a discussion about racial discrimination laws.

“Marcia Langton publicly said she did not think he was a racist. As a result the ABC apologises for broadcasting her comments,” Jones said last night.

Ms Langton’s comments referred to a 2011 Federal Court ruling that found Mr Bolt breached Section 18C by publishing newspaper articles questioning the motivations of fair-skinned people who identified as Aboriginal.

Mrs Langton backed down from her claims two days later on Steve Price’s 2GB radio show and apologised to Bolt. He had sought an apology from the ABC for airing the comments.

Federal Attorney General George Brandis is behind plans to change section 18C, to balance freedom of speech and racial vilification

“Andrew Bolt is not a racist and to accuse him of being a racist is itself a form of vile abuse of the man,” he said.

Yeah, Bolts growing increasingly tired of media and on-line accusations of racism, and quite frankly, so am I.

It's like hundreds of blogging niggers have all broken out of prison and have stolen a bunch of laptops or something.

Andrew Bolt is what? 56? Nope checked, 55 in September. It's a bad time for males.

Now it's Bolt's turn to apologise for being a lying douchebag.
