The issue with the comment above is that she said she only saw him when he opened his mouth, which is similar to various racist jokes about black people being invisible at night until they smile.

It's about time Kennedy bit the bullet and went. She is is a dinosaur and her views have no place in a forward thinking, media driven society.

Is it just a coincidence that some of the best long distance runners of recent years were Ethiopians or from other African countries?

Although she is not the best presenter in the world, if Sarah Kennedy loses her job it will be a travesty. But why let the truth get in the way of an accusation of making a racist remark.

A dark skinned person dressed in dark clothes is difficult to see on unlit roads and flashing smile will contrast against that darkness.
