Yes
You can make a case for his turning into the new Mary Whitehouse. Not quite as scary and outright wrong-headed but just as censorious (he has actually rallied support for other journalist's work to be "disappeared" in the name of political correctness - he is an enemy of free speech).

His endless tirades outlining how violent he feels like getting toward various people are really, really dull too.

More info please
"(he has actually rallied support for other journalist's work to be "disappeared" in the name of political correctness - he is an enemy of free speech)."

I'd be interested to find out more about this...

I've had a quick search around but couldn't find anything. Could anyone provide a link or some further information on this?

Ah, I've found it
Here's the article Jan Moir wrote which provoked Charlie Brooker: www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-1220756/A-strange-lonely-troubling-death--.html

Here's Charlie's article to which the earlier post referred : www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/oct/16/stephen-gately-jan-moir

Here's Jan Moir's response : www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/oct/16/jan-moir-stephen-gately-response

And another : www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/oct/23/jan-moir-stephen-gately-apology

I personally think calling him "an enemy of free speech" to be blowing the situation out of proportion but, as a fan of Mr. Brooker, I would be unable to totally deny accusations of bias.

However I do find Jan Moir's article to be in very poor taste and feel it contains a rather homophobic subtext, and although I wouldn't join a call to arms attempting to ban it, I would have felt justified in registering my distate at the time of publication. (I didn't, incidentally)

Anyhoo, at least people can have a read and make up their own minds
