Of course they have, the twatter mob would be on them in a flash if they said anything else.
Given how anyone who dares to do something the mob disagrees with gets fired (even if it was years ago) they will of course say whatever they think people want to hear.

No one forces anyone to watch TV.
I'm also pretty sure everyone (black/white/whatever) is perfectly capable of making a choice whether to watch or not to watch something, and actually have a sense of reality, they know its a comedy show, from the past.

I know, from friends of mine who are not white (and btw, not hetro) that they find this kind of thing, where others censor on their behalf, to be quite insulting. It implies they have no sense of humour at all, must be offended by everything, and cannot laugh at themselves.

If you cannot understand censorship, then you will certainly enjoy the 1984 world we are moving towards.
