All Katie Price has done is complain to OFCOM, after asking Channel 4 for an apology. She is not banning anyone from saying anything.

I believe you can say anything about anybody - doesn't have to be funny.
Nor is it wrong for anybody to be offended, they can be offended as much as they want - but that's where it ends.
In so far as the above Jordan has the absolute right to complain and request an apology.
Whether CH4 or F.Boyle apologise is their perogative.

No, but whether I think it is acceptable or not is irrelevant

Do we not have a right to call it unacceptable?

Of course, but that is all - but there should be no further punitive recourse
