To whom this may concern,
I am writing this in regards to the crude joke that Frankie Boyle made in reference to Harvey Price. After watching the show on channel 4, having felt offended myself, I'm sure that the other viewers would have felt the same way. In fact a recorded number of 500 people felt strongly enough to complain to the Independent Communication Regulators about their distress whilst watching the episode. Aiming a joke at on particular person who has no way of defending himself seems harsh and as though Boyle is a bully. Having said that, Frankie Boyle is a comedian and it's his job to make people laugh. I understand that Channel 4 supports race and disability issues and for sake of equality jokes that would be make about the more able people show too be made about the disabled people. This is put in place in order to prevent anybody from being ostracized and neglected.
