I am fully aware as his is now on prime time; he is not allowed to touch such issues; and as I said I do not expect BBC London to educate me on black issues (I also tune in to black owned stations) but I think there is still a role for black presenters on mainstream radio - as long as they present themselves as intelligent (which Mr Schumann does not).
BTW, As Mr Schumann is being replaced by Eddie Nestor - I dont understand what the issue is here?

What is Eddie going to do that Geoff hasn't done already? If he's got the 10pm - 2am slot so how "deep" can he go. He cant go the same route Geoff has gone or the 'fat controller' will tell him to revise his output or leave.
There is a role for black broadcasters on London radio but it doesn't mean our issues have to be diluted to include other races. Have you heard Dotun's ad? He specifically says he talks about black issues but includes the white audience.
