A spokesperson from Fox Sports apologized for the video:
"The context was clearly inappropriate, and the video was removed as soon as we became aware of it. We will review our editorial process to determine where the breakdown occurred and we will take steps to ensure something like this never happens again."
Discussion Starters:
- Do you consider the video racist? Is it ethical? Explain your position.
- What could Fox Sports change in their editorial process to make sure this doesn't happen again, as the spokesperson promises?
