it all. Grow up. Just heard this via tweets. Felt really bad for this needless hurtful comment. Then found myself here and read the response to Claire's complaint. Wow the bigots who live amongst us never fail to amaze me. Claire your program is truly wonderful. You have made this a truly enjoyable and I wish we could see you in much more programmes of this type. You are a wonderful presenter and bravo to you for objecting to this inappropriate bigoted reporting. Homophobia and racism are alive and Present and to defend or tolerate them is indefensible. Poor sales and controversy creates cash. That is the only conclusion I can come to as to why the editor of The Sunday Times would not only allow AA Gill's column to be published but to then go out and defend it in such a way ('Dyke on a bike' = Jeremy Clarkson having bad dress sense??? Seriously??). I personally find AA Gill's comments to be more misogynistic and ignorant than homophobic but believe by publication they have effectively endorsed homophobic behaviour and language. I just find this whole scenario almost surreal in execution because this kind of language and the subsequent defence thereof can surely only be done for attention seeking purposes as you don't need a crystal ball to give you a hint as to what the response would be which is why I have to come to the conclusion that it was done for this exact kind of attention.
