Mike Graham sacked from TalkTV after ‘failure’ to assist inquiry into racist post

Broadcaster suspended presenter last month over Facebook post he said happened after account was hacked

The presenter Mike Graham has been dismissed from Rupert Murdoch's digital channel TalkTV, after the company said he had failed to cooperate with an investigation into a racist post that appeared on one of his social media accounts.

Graham, 65, was suspended by the broadcaster, owned by Murdoch's News UK, after concerns were raised about the message, which was posted on his Facebook account last month.
