BBC blurs trans rights shirt on Strictly Come Dancing
Original: BBC blurs Strictly trans rights shirt
The BBC has blurred a shirt bearing a trans rights message during a broadcast of Strictly Come Dancing, according to reports circulating widely. Critics accuse the broadcaster of censoring support for trans people, while others argue the BBC is right to keep politically charged messaging off air. The corporation has faced repeated scrutiny over how it handles political symbols on its programmes.
Why now: Viewers are debating whether the blur amounts to censorship of trans rights support on a flagship BBC show.
