This article is from November 17th, so a couple days old, but I found it worthwhile.

    Yeah, which is vile, granted. Not sure what the actual *crime* here is though given you’d be hard pushed to find somebody that hasn’t made/laughed at a 9/11 joke, AIDS joke, cancer joke, dead celebrity joke, Jimmy Saville jokes, in their lifetime.

    Difference is none of that was televised.

      ……televised next to the away fans. Like 9/11jokes in the NY Fire Department, AIDS/cancer joke to a dying victim and their family, Saville joke to one of his victims? Plus there is no ‘joke’ here, just an attempt to cause as much crass offence as possible. Context.
