A guy in the jury of the German version of American Idol recently compared the COVID lockdown to concentration camps, so the producers were like “Nope”, blurred him out, replaced everything he said with speech bubbles, beeped out his name everytime it was mentioned and even replaced the performance of a contestant who sang one of his songs with a generic jingle.
When the contestant was singing his song, they also showed this:
Contestant Christian chose a song by the judge we removed from the show due to his unspeakable remarks. That’s why we also won’t play this judge’s music.
And THAT is how you deal with tasteless remarks regarding a horrible time in history!!
