Perhaps he can use his white, male privilege to pay the bills?
I used to think the BBC was a little biased but overall a good thing, but now I greatly resent essentially being taxed to be indoctrinated with lefty bullshit. I understand hiring more 'diversity', even if it is bullshit, but actually FIRING a man for being a white man?
This is what I don't get - white men are told how unbelievably privileged they are and how everybody is oppressed by them, but how many times does this affirmative action bullshit happen to anything BUT white men? Everybody else is protected from this shit!
How is the man's replacement going to feel, knowing that the whole cast and audience is viewing them as the pity hire, the one who cost their colleague / favourite presenter their job? It's fucking insulting of the BBC to do this to women/gays/POC/whatever! The soft bigotry of low expectations by Guardian-reading, upper-middle class, white tossers, what a fucking surprise.
