News UK Fires Talk Host Mike Graham Over 'Vile' Social Post After He Declines Probe

The company says he reneged on offers to work with an independent forensic investigation.

Overview

  • News UK said Graham will not return to Talk following a review of a racist Facebook post that appeared on his account.
  • The company stated he initially agreed to cooperate but later refused multiple opportunities to engage with the independent inquiry.
  • Graham denies writing the message, says his Facebook was hacked, deleted the post, and thanked supporters in a video message.
  • Skepticism grew after users noted an almost identical Churchill photo had been posted to his X account moments earlier.
  • He was suspended from Morning Glory and replaced in the slot by Jeremy Kyle, and he apologized for canceling a Shepherd's Bush Empire show.
