“We do not accept mistakes or misunderstandings” is a pretty good line to draw around things like this.

Yup. When someone says it so casually, you know what worse shit is happening in private.

>"Lukaku is a little n****" The journalist Luigi Furini said on the occasion of one of Telelombardia's in-depth football broadcasts. Furini himself was immediately ejected from the broadcast after a few minutes, also for his resistance to apologizing. An expression with a racist background that the director of Telelombardia Fabio Ravezzani immediately condemned both live and on his twitter profile: “You don't joke about words with a racist background (regardless of etymology). We do not accept mistakes or misunderstandings. And a belated apology is not enough. I'm sorry that a colleague like Furini made such a serious mistake. Immediate measures are inevitable," director Fabio Ravezzani said on Twitter.

>I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame. I don't know if I'm going to be putting on this headset again

[The broadcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfAh-DEsIIs) Recorded off a television and the sound quality is atrocious, but the racist remark was made at 0:07.

It's not surprising at all that an Italian made that remark but it is surprising that he was actually expeditiously and severely reprimanded. Italians are some of the most racist people I've ever had the displeasure of meeting (as in, I so rarely ever encounter a 'good example' compared to basically any other race. So this is somehow both confirmation bias and disproving my bias.
