This thread got flushed down the toilet from the very beginning, no substance nor merit.
The decision was made by an entertainment company to ensure that their viewers were not offended and they have succeeded, especially since they made the decision transparent.

There is no evidence that one lefty would be afraid. It does appear that some TV producers were afraid someone might be offended, but that's a rather poor excuse for lefty-baiting. Which is to say, plenty of excuse for whell.

That, and the person involved was uncomfortable with the coincidental circumstances.

Imagine someone named Irwin Rommel as a commentator on a Berlin international games broadcast. Someone might notice?
