A great shame - Fox's cred on judgement is shredded.

Re: GB News / Talk TV
When GB News immediately apologises and suspends you then you've really screwed up.
The truth is that he is an untalented moron who has to depend on shock value for a career and went too far.
Quite funny though because Wotton tried to distance himself from it and Fox has screenshotted a Twitter DM between the two of them laughing about it after it was broadcast: https://twitter.com/LozzaFox/status/1706972987642044714
For all their bravado about free speech and culture wars, they're just grifters willing to sell each other out as fast as possible if their income is under threat.

Re: GB News / Talk TV
Shame that Wootton also got suspended. But he let things go during the show - so no surprise.

Re: GB News / Talk TV
The stuff around him before probably contributed to it. They may have felt they didn't want to keep dealing with the hassle and this was an excuse, also possible there has been a revolt within GB News as he apparently isn't the most popular person there.
Either way, GB News seems to have reacted faster to this than I would have expected.

Lozza with the total Partridge move of bringing someone else’s show into disrepute.

I suspect Ofcom will be on them like a ton of bricks so they’re moving first as mitigation.

One way or another I suspect GB News' days are numbered. Its major advertiser seem to be Swansea World of leather

Re: GB News / Talk TV
Where have we heard that before?
Oh, yes…

“When I went to the courthouse, which is also a prison in a sense, they signed me in — and I’ll tell you, people were crying,” Trump said. “People that work there. Professionally work there, that have no problems putting in murderers, and they see everybody. It’s a tough, tough place, and they were crying. They were actually crying. They said, '2024, sir. 2024.' And tears were pouring down their eyes." I’ve never seen anything like it. Those people are phenomenal. Those are your police, those are the people that work at the courthouse. They’re unbelievable people. Many of them were in tears or close to it. Many apologized — ‘We’re sorry, sir, we’re sorry.’”"

A case of "If I'm going down, I'll bring Wootton down with me as well."

Is he still here? I though he had left the country, as he promised, as Brexit has failed

Re: GB News / Talk TV
Schedule still showing Dan Wooton on at 9pm tonight. I guess they're still firming up who will cover.
