Miaow!One ex-colleague is not a fan....
He was only talking about her the other day.Miaow!
Anyone know Giles Coren? He has a show on Times Radio, on Fri. He got into hot water the other month after he somewhat celebrated the death of a journalist who died from a long term illness who had been rude about him and criticised him. People were calling him a dick and were criticising him for his reaction, but he's still on Times Radio despite that.I love Steve. Now in saying that being mean about a teenage girls weight is a shitty thing to do and all but asking for him to be sacked is completely ridiculous. Other people have said worse so why everyone is jumping on a fairly tame word I don’t know. Mountain and molehill spring to mind.
Not gonna lie, I somewhat like all the drama. What makes it even funnier is that Steve hasn't commented on it at all.He was only talking about her the other day.
I see the DM have now done an article on Gordon's record of fat shaming. Will someone please make it stop!!!!
Not personally thank fuck. The whole Coren clan is rotten, talentless, and entitled. All living off the back of their father's talent. Horrible people, given every chance in life ... Giles becomes a food critic and Victoria decides to play cards. Big round of applause for Giles and Vicky, really thanks a bunch for using your first class education to really change the world for the better. Ughgghh ... horrible people. (Sorry for that rant, had to get it off my chest).Anyone know Giles Coren?
Steve has said far, far worse over the years. As recent as yesterday he commented about how people calling themselves British ‘didn’t look very British’ and during the retreat of Afghanistan ‘everyone that matters is out now’. He described Sarah Harding as being ‘riddled with cancer’ when her stage 4 diagnosis was announced and has spent many, many hours ridiculing 10 year old Harper Beckham.I think the situation has got a bit out of hand now - Steve was being an idiot when he said that but with the coverage continuing everywhere, it almost feels like he's committed murder.
Nepotism is rife in the BBC. Esther Rantzan's clan (with different surnames) get in everywhere.The Steve Allen thing isMark Dolan will be discussing it on his show tonight apparently. Maybe he should do a slot on how rife nepotism is in the media, a lot more damaging than calling a spade a spade.
Sanitising everywhere to the “body positivity view” will not benefit anyone. As for anorexia being bandied about, talk of relapses and the Harry Potter one chiming in - good grief! ‘Chubby Tilly’ is laughing all the way to the PR bank.
Steve can have me raging with the things he comes out with, he says far worse about the ordinary Joe/Jane texting in. If I don’t like it I put some music on and wait for him to change subject. Then again, I do actually listen to his show unlike the baying Twitter mob…
