Hardly surprising
everyone makes money out of being outraged as it garners attention.

21,000 complaints now...I wonder if tyhe unions are coordianting their members?
the irony is that this row is distracting fromm their real issues around pay and pensions.

It belittles the issue that is of massive importance to their members.
The response should have been "He's a cunt, let's move the debate on."

"members" is the appropriate word here
if you're dumb enough to be offended by what someone who is renowned for sarcastic arrogance says, switch off the tv and have a look at your life. and real life.

urgh!

Hang on, there is a phone call for you here, I'll just find out who it is.
Oh, apparently it's a Mr Terry Pot, I'll find out what he wants.

Hmmmm, I've had to hang up on him, he started off by implying you should be boiling water, and then he started hurling all this racist abuse.

Don't know what that was all about.

Quite
you'd think they would just let it go and say, "look, Clarkson thinks it's a good thing, therefore anyone with a modicum of intelligence ought to be questioning what's wrong with it"

It's the whole Ross/Brand thing again, as well.
There have been 20,000 complaints. Of which 75% are from people who haven't even fucking seen it.

It's ITV, what do you expect.
It's the lowest common denominator.
