Everyone's angry at Anthea Turner for using an offensive word on Twitter

After Anthea Turner posted the words “Sorry, phone having a spaz!” on Twitter she’s been faced with a barrage of angry comments.

Holymoly.com responded: "These days, fading TV personalities can’t even tweet a highly offensive word that’s historically been used as a derogatory term for people with disabilities without being shouted by the liberal Nazis they have now."


"What is the world coming to when a woman who’s mostly famous for advertising a chocolate bar at her own wedding can’t carelessly post a word that’s been unacceptable since the 1980s?? Where’s Ricky Gervais when you need him? He should be fighting Turner’s corner. Or is “mong” not as bad as “spaz”? So hard to keep track." Holy Moly added.

Anthea has since deleted her Twitter clanger. But we’ll recreate it here:"
