Hi Archie!Annoyed it's called Archie. Anyone else noticed how everyone fucker seems to have a kid called either Archie or Alfie these days?
Now there will be 10000 more Archie's

I just don't get it to be honest. Why on earth would you if you were a "normal" person let alone a "celeb" at the BBC?
Deserved sacking to be honest, even if it turns out he isn't actually racist he's obviously just thick as fuck.
What did he expect to hapen?
ahh a pic of a chimp and caption royal baby
what else did he expect? had to be sacked.
ill advised at best.
Even if there was no racist connotation meant social media, (and some mainstream media, no names , daily mail), has been a cesspit of racism since the baby was born.
Don't know why he expected anything else to happen.
And lets be honest, Danny Baker is an intelligent, quick witted fella, can't believe at no point he didn't think, hold on, this is a bit inappropriate.
He claims the joke was meant to about royals vs a circus animal in posh clothes
No I don’t get it either

So much defending of him knocking about as well with many saying the kid is white anyway. Seething. I can absolutely 100% guarantee the kid will not identify as white.
I must admit I was expecting a Danny baker defence in this thread. Still early days but I’m pleasantly surprised so far.

Really can't see how it can be defended. Even if he was pissed out of his head (which will probably be another excuse at some point), I doubt he is then going to be able to login, find an image, save it, attach it and write a caption that is spelt correctly.
Burn Twitter to the ground.
It's such a horrible hive of reactionary, sensational wankers hellbent on finding outrage. Every fucking day there's some new "backlash" or "outrage"

I still don't get how it's anything but?
Obviously not that clever.
What annoys me more than anything is I genuinely don’t give a fuck about the royal family at all and if this kid wasn’t mixed race I wouldn’t even give it a second thought. But I just knew all this shit would happen. Starts with name jokes, moves onto comparisons with monkeys. He’s 2 fucking days old. 2 days. I had my own grandparents saying “thanks god he’s pale” when I was born. My own family. Fuck this.
Who needs advising on that though? Even more so people who work in the media and will be trained on that sort of shit more than the normal person.
it's just an expression Nick, I didn't mean he'd actually sought advise!
Tired argument. Twitter is just a platform people use. It’s still people. No different to being on here but with a wider audience. No different to being in a pub but with a wider audience.
That's bollocks.
First off. Celebrities don't use SBT style forums or sit in the pub expressing their opinions or telling jokes etc.
Also Twitter is commonly used by people with political agendas. The whole platform is a toxic waste ground for idiots to force their opinions on others and to say "it's just people" is extremely naive. It's groupthink on a massive scale.
I also don't give two shits about the Danny Baker incident. I'm talking in general terms.
Don’t agree. Twitter is what you want it to be. I use it for betting tips and nothing more. Not saying the above doesn’t go on of course but it’s people using twitter as a platform to do the above. I guess it can become an echo chamber as it’s easier to talk to like minded people in twitter than it would be without it, be that bad or good. Is but that a huge stretch from us lot posting on a Cov City forum?
I can see how people use it just to converse about any old bollocks i.e football or game of thrones, which is very much like a forum but it's also used in a toxic way to push agendas and create sensationalism.
The guy who owns Twitter said this recently '“We have witnessed abuse, harassment, troll armies, manipulation through bots and human-coordination, misinformation campaigns, and increasingly divisive echo chambers,” Dorsey wrote. “We aren’t proud of how people have taken advantage of our service, or our inability to address it fast enough.”
