17:28Now PlayingJames O'Brien criticises the commentators 'who were gleeful in their coverage of the mounting accusations and allegations' against former Cambridge University professor Jason Arday.
He observes that 'two things can be true' - 'they found things he [Arday] needed to be held accountable for - and it began with a racist'.
Professor Arday, 41, had resigned from his post as the Professor of Sociology of Education last week after allegations of plagiarism were made against him.
He was pronounced dead after emergency services were called to an address in Battersea, south London, on Friday following reports that a man had been found unresponsive inside a property.
