John Galliano Suspended by Dior for Anti-Semitic Rant in Paris

John Galliano, fashion’s enfant terrible, has been suspended from Dior after allegedly assaulting a couple in a Paris bar and using anti-Semitic or racist slurs. “Dior affirms with the utmost conviction its policy of zero tolerance towards any anti-Semitic or racist words or behavior. Pending the results of the inquiry, Christian Dior has suspended John Galliano from his responsibilities,” the company said in a statement. Tracy McNicoll reports from Paris on the scandalous allegations.
