Jimmy Savile arrives in America!
Discussion
The New York Times has an article today about the Savile / BBC scandal! It's astonishing what dimensions this thing is starting to take on. It was in the media here in Germany last week too, but that at least is still in Europe.
That they're picking up on it in the States is pretty amazing: a lot of yanks aren't even sure where "Yurrup" is, let alone who Jimmy Savile was.
A quote from the article that made me smile: "Ben Bradshaw, a former BBC reporter who is a panel member, offered a withering rebuke to Mr. Entwistle. “You have to get a grip,” he said."
The beeb shoud've got a grip 40 years ago...
