Cultural relativism in 'The Sun' (18 nov 11)

There is a big hoo-hah right now in Britain about whether one footballer used racist words to another. The alleged offender is Uruguayan, and apparently 'negrito' is a term of affection there. Here is Chelsea's Portuguese manager:

"Gus Poyet came out with those words because he has the view of the Uruguayan people.

It's not that it's the correct view but it's his view of the situation."
