Political Correctness Gone MadFreddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."

The politically correct Fun Police at my local primary schoolhave decreed that apparently kids can't read Enid Blyton any more because "attitudes were different then" and "people might be offended." Why for God's sake?

My local library had a clear out of non-PC books.So I got the entire Raymond Chandler works, hardback, rather smart for 10p each.
Also, for example, The Travels of Marco Polo in a v.tasteful mock leather cover, and much else. All 10p each.
To be replaced by what vanilla flavour pulp I wonder?
