He (Maguire) has been a prize tit. He's also undermined a cause (anti-racism) where he could have and hopefully still will make far more useful contributions. The Island clearly does still have a problem. The young lady who had an interview published on the IoM Newspapers site portrayed things very well and I hope more thought will follow from that. I also hope Mr Maguire will quietly apologise to Stu. However I also hope that most here will recognise that young men do make mistakes and will not attempt to pillory him for it.

gettafa Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 You can't just 'give someone a slot' although I am happy to be proved wrong.. There needs to be aptitude for the job, personality and a certain amount of training required. Certainly many of today's senior presenters did *ahem* discos and stuff before entering the word of broadcasting, many had a natural leaning to the job. Anyway, we'll see.

I think it was naive at best, inflammatory at not best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like what Stu said one bit, but I can't see how it could have been a breach of this: It doesn't help that the thing is written in incredibly wishy-washy language, but I suspect I'd have found the same conclusion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’ll be why the Radio station referred the show to the Commission, rather than take action themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was an employer in any industry I would bin Jordan’s CV the second it landed in my Inbox. Can you imagine the trouble he’d cause for you if he was working within your company in his pursuit to be offended by anything and everything.

How come you suggest anyone who doesn't agree with you is a student and should care more about what other people think of them? Not trying to be a dick, just curious.
