Clarkson Is A Knob, But...

If you like Jeremy Clarkson then he's the sort of thing you like. He has a constituency and it's welcome to him. Personally, I switch over hastily at the first glimpse of his sulky face. And that's my point. I can censor my own viewing, thank you very much. I don't want him- or anybody else- sacked. In a world that ran according to my principles he wouldn't have a job in the first place because there'd be no appetite for his schtick- but there is and he flourishes- and I hope I'm grown-up enough not to repine because views other than my own are given air-time.
