Sky Sports' Gary Neville sack decision revealed, following 'angry white man' comments
"Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville will not face any disciplinary action after comments he made following the recent Manchester synagogue attack. The former Manchester United defender posted a three-minute video on his social media account last week, insisting that hatred and division in the United Kingdom is being fuelled by 'angry white men'. Neville has been heavily criticised for doing so by members of the public and MPs, with some suggesting he should be sacked by Sky for doing so."
"According to the Daily Mail, Neville's statements are not expected to prompt disciplinary measures for violating Sky Sports' social media policies. The broadcaster's guidelines state: "Talent and contributors should be aware that social media communities are public forums and should not undertake activity that brings either their programme or Sky into disrepute." Following his remarks posted online, Neville resumed regular duties on Sky Sports, which included coverage of Chelsea's dramatic win over Liverpool and Manchester City's victory against Brentford."
Gary Neville posted a three-minute social media video asserting that hatred and division in the United Kingdom is being fuelled by 'angry middle-aged white men' and criticised the display of Union Jack flags. He faced heavy criticism from members of the public, MPs, and some supporters who demanded his dismissal. Sky Sports does not expect to take disciplinary measures under its social media policy, and Neville resumed presenting duties on live Premier League coverage. Flags and banners have appeared at Old Trafford and Hotel Football, and protests occurred at a Salford City match in response to his remarks.
