I thought DJs were immortal. How dare Steve think he can carry on his depraved and sick ways for ever. Like Desmond Carrington. And Jimmy Young. Who are both still doing radio. <br /><br />As an aside, I used to be in a band with a guy who worked with Wrightie... he never mentioned Steve&#39;s eating habits once. Clearly he had been threatened with violence or sexual depravity if he ever spilled the beans. <br /><br />I&#39;m so angry not only could I throw the phone down, but I could attend a car boot sale, ask questions of an old lady, and watch a pervy tapping at the window.<br /><br />That Phil Cornwell has a lot to answer for. <br /><br />(for the memories - visit: http://www.radiorewind.co.uk/radio1/steve_wright_page.htm )Carl Evehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03930750600999601721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21544361.post-77464886753936234742011-09-11T11:51:18.665+01:002011-09-11T11:51:18.665+01:00Just looked at the original article and noticed under related articles :<br /><br />13 of Britain&#39;s most evil killers sue the prison service for thousands over &quot;trivial&quot; complaints 04/08/2011 00:00Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21544361.post-39069145677507307972011-09-06T18:00:37.751+01:002011-09-06T18:00:37.751+01:00His article made me so angry, I could have thrown the phone down!Ernie Gogginshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01044812993148040730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21544361.post-12127613650534443552011-09-06T15:01:39.427+01:002011-09-06T15:01:39.427+01:00You&#39;re all being very flippant about this, but I read all the way through to the end of the article.<br /><br />I bet you didn&#39;t know that he drives a car - a fucking YELLOW one.<br /><br />And that he arrives at work at nine in the morning and leaves at 5pm. (That&#39;s &quot;nine to five,&quot; if I can try and somehow twist this bloated monster&#39;s Hieronymous Bosch lifestyle into some phrase normal people could come close to understanding.)<br /><br />That&#39;s - you do understand the enormity of this, yes? - after his show is finished.

I have never worked for a company that filters swear words or know of any journalists that have mentioned it. <br /><br />This is not to say it is possible electroweb is right, just unlikely.<br /><br />It isn&#39;t really practical for journalists to have a swear filter. If Northern &amp; Shell decided to implement a filter then the business would grind to a halt given their X-rated output!uksceptichttp://scepticalbanter.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21544361.post-3045654403904547592011-09-05T07:16:18.992+01:002011-09-05T07:16:18.992+01:00(circlejerk comment)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21544361.post-52107995326452747022011-09-04T14:30:47.806+01:002011-09-04T14:30:47.806+01:00It&#39;s the only reasonable explanation for why no-one has seen fit to respond...electrowebhttp://www.electro-web.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21544361.post-39452011198470136322011-09-04T14:30:15.445+01:002011-09-04T14:30:15.445+01:00That Richard Desmond is a pornographer is the least of his sins for me.
