I dont blame them at all...
Watching last nights episode of gobby Jade going off on one yet again at poor Shilpa was hard. I was sat there willing Big Brother to do something about it. No one should have to put up with what they allowed Shilpa to go through last night.
I think the Channel 4 show has sunk to a new depth. They should of stepped in long before last nights latest episode from the wicked witch and her faithful but dappy followers, but to actully allow that to take place AND to air it was disgusting!
Its no surprise that Carphone Warehouse have pulled out in my opinion, would ou want to be aupporting a show with clearly a serious lack of morals?
*** In Response To The Answer Above ***
I do hear what you're saying, sometimes it seems the PC attitude is taken to the extreme.
I dont believe this is all about racism as much as it is about jelousy. Jade I tink is clealy threatened by the fact the Shilpa is a pretty, successfull, well mannered woman. She doesnt need to fart, blech or swear to get attention, she gets attention because she is a genuinely nice person.
Though in saying this, there has been some signs of racism i.e. Dopey Danielle's comment last night of "why don't she just fcuk off home?" and Jade's comment about her accent. In all respect, Shilpa speak's better English than Jade, Danielle and Jo put together and to be honest, I have more trouble understand Danielle than I do Shilpa!

If it weren't for juvenile, obnoxious, petty behavior related to being drunk, sleeping around, being attractive, fitting in, not fitting in, being loved, or being despised, no one would watch stupid reality television like Big Brother. Those people are in that house to offend, betray, annoy, back-stab, lie to, and otherwise make the others in the house somehow beneath each other in order to win a large sum of money. All sorts of vile behavior has been shown on Big Brother and everyone thought it was cheeky and scandalous and entertaining until the victim was from India, and then suddenly we all expected the housemates to be nothing but dignified and loving and respectful of all diversity and human rights. WTF?!
My position is this. If you are a Big Brother watcher then you - by definition - find yourself entertained by people acting horribly and cruelly to each other. Don't you *dare* have the nerve to suddenly be offended because you think that making fun of someones accent is unspeakable while lying and cheating and betrayal and general despicableness is "just good TV."

Good News.
Carphone Warehouse employ people of all backgrounds, and they need to distance themselves from the remarks made and published on Channel 4.
Now is time for Channel 4 to CANCEL this edition of Big Brother, and for the men in white coats to take Jade Goody back to the mental institution.

Did they sponsor it in the first place? Can you tell I am not a fan of BB. I think it will go on and on and get more and more boring until someone decides to look into the bullying that has been allegedly going on. Racism, in my eyes, is bullying but based on skin colour or ethnicity and should not be tolerated - especially on a programme that is receiving such coverage be it good or bad.

Good for them. Why should a respected company be involved with bullying, racism, ignorance, b*tchiness and jealousy? Channel 4 act like it doesn't concern them.

Maybe they can use the sponsorhip money saved for sorting out the customer service nightmare that is TalkTalk!!!
But then again, maybe there's not enough money in the world for that?

pathetic. there has been no racism. just bullying. why is it only white people can be racist. last year Micheal Barrymore and some page 3 girl got a lot worse bullying aimed at them, but that was OK. also. why is not racist when Jermaine called jade and her mother " white trash ". it just smacks of one rule for us, another rule for them. its getting to the stage when white people are scared to say anything in case the race card is played. just to prove it, watch how many thumbs down i get.

I think it's good somebody is doing something about it. Endemol and Channel 4 don't give a toss.....in fact they're clapping their hands because the ratings have shot up.
