Wiley is sick but his social media enablers are worse, says VANESSA FELTZ

I am writing this column more than 48 hours after the rapper Wiley let loose a vile and bile-filled stream of racist invective on social media. His obscenity-ridden rants ran the usual gamut of grossly bigoted tropes. I use the word "racist" rather than the word "antisemitic" because after decades as a Jewish woman with a public profile I know only too well that some people choose to believe that antisemitism is somehow different from "real" racism.
