W1A falls short of the real absurdity of life at the BBC

W1A falls short of the real absurdity of life at the BBC: "Daily Mail [is] rolling its eyes into the back of its head. This, after all, was perfect clickbait. Along with soft porn and body fascism – the usual enticements to the raging troglodytes who inhabit the underworld beneath the online articles – BBC-bashing is a surefire winner. The headlines ran: “I could earn DOUBLE elsewhere: £320,000-a-year BBC TV chief defends huge pay packet” and “New carpets at BBC’s £1bn HQ … just months after it opened.”" 'via Blog this'

Jack of Kent: McLibel

Jack of Kent: McLibel: "It is the Crap Libel Case against which all others are measured.

In particular, there are three really, really stupid decisions by McDonalds in this case. These decisions are so staggeringly misconceived that they should be treasured by anyone interested in the dysfunctions of human nature. Only very special decision-makers can make decisions this bad." 'via Blog this'
