Chris Moyles...

Always thought he was a bully and sinfully unfunny. That sort of comment was inappropriate twenty years ago, just as it remains today. Apart from the sexual inappropriateness, imagine the embarrassment for a fifteen year old girl to hear that about something she probably held dear (as most women do) on national radio. An absolutely disgusting and cowardly thing to say.

Fat, humourless ****.

It’s an inappropriate topic even if she was well into adulthood and sexually active. Apart from something like the Howard Stern show, I can't think of anything where the DJ ought to have the right to bring it up.

didn't the papers do the same about that lass in the Harry Potter movies too? Fucking vile - middle aged no doubt white reporters and editors trying to get beyond flaccid over underaged girls and dressing it up as "in the public interest"
The same bunch of pervs will be writing articles with faux hand wringing over recent events.
What’s “white” got to do with anything?
 
How would you like to see him meet his maker?

I'd like to see him eaten whole by a Giant Anaconda.
No idea how the bloke had a career that lasted longer than the 1990s, never mind into the 2020s!

I’d like to see him sent back to Yorkshire for the rest of his days. That’d be a bad enough existence for anyone to endure.

It always pissed me off he came on the Radio after Mark and Lard, the radio went off and the Sony Minidisc went on, how he ended the highest paid DJ on Radio 1 is beyond me tbh, never got him at all, came across as the gobby fat **** he was.
 
Diversity of backgrounds? Or are we going to pretend that mainstream tabloid journalism is a complete meritocracy?
Who gives a rats arse about the diversity of backgrounds in late 1990s/early 2000s British crayoning outside the lines target audience journalism? You’ve got to be one hell of a twat to think that’s important to point out.
 
I doubt very much the Voice was critical of Meghan and had smear campaigns against her.
I also doubt it, I didn't realise it was about Meghan Markle either but to do with 'white' editors getting beyond flaccid with teenage girls.

On reflection, dirty old perves would suffice imo

I remember when I was 18/19yo and the Daily Sport counting down the days to show the tits of a young girl called Linsey Dawn Mackenzie, who had very large tits but I don't think she minded tbh.


edit fuck me I was actually 22 (same place of work though)

Proper gulf in quality between the two shows.

I never listened to him after those late 90s shows because of how shit he was. Neither funny nor interesting.

Don’t know if he still has this show, but I was flicking through the stations a few years ago and his breakfast show was one it landed on, and I could be arsed finding another station for a bit so left it on... he talked for fifteen minutes either side of a news bulletin, on music radio! And he was talking shit, just like he was in the 90s, and I presume he has been for the decades between my listens?!

How’s he lasted so long?

Likewise The Voice has never been known for its page 3 picture either.
 
I'm just wondering why a thread that was last posted on 5 years ago, suddenly needs bumping.
Yes, Moyles is a turd, and this particular utterance is abhorrent, but I think some people aren't happy unless they're being constantly appalled

I'll await a thread bump over the two tossers Ross and Brand , regarding the cowardly bullying of Andrew Sachs and his granddaughter.

I'd say it is because Church brought Moyles up in an interview today and somebody has searched for a Moyles thread to post the relevant story in, they haven't just randomly brought it back from the past to chat shit on.

Not really. Because they don't just set report the news, they can "make" the news, and influence the agenda in public life. I'm not too fussed about colour in end of itself, but we know that this area of journalism isa socially elite profession with imbedded classism.

I don't particularly care about what is now the ancient history of newspapers.

Do you think if they had more diverse newsrooms there might be a difference in stories, e.g. If there were more people of black heritage or from inner urban areas at the Daily Mail- would they be more likely to take up a campaign to tackle health inequalities and higher mother/infant mortality rates?
 
Seems strange she should bring this up, many years later. Has she something to plug?
