Complaint

A listener complained that a piece by Debussy had been inaccurately introduced as β€œC²Ή°μ±π·Ι²Ή±τ°μ”, which was not its full title.Μύ The ECU considered whether the item met the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ’s editorial standards of accuracy.


Outcome

The original title includes a term now considered racially offensive.Μύ The ECU considered that, while its omission may have rendered the title incomplete, it did not render it materially inaccurate, as it would have enabled listeners to identify the piece in question.
