Russell Brand, BBC Radio 2 and a Satanic Slut... equals boredom!

I'll be honest with you, I didn't hear the so called "offensive" material go out on air, so I can't comment on the incident. I find Russell Brand boring anyway. Fame has gone to his head and he just literally is about as interesting as a freshly painted wall. And when it comes to Jonathan Ross, I didn't listen to him either and I find him boring too. Though I do respect his longevity in the industry, I just find him to be a one-trick pony, maybe two tricks at best, but that's it.

So, this story, about Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross leaving phone messages on the answerphone of Andrew Sachs, who was Manuel in Fawlty Towers, had all the components of a total sleepfest for me. It took the "high and mighty" Conservative press A WEEK to get their act together with their fake offence which was pushed along by the attention seeking of Georgina Baillie, aka Satanic Slut Voluptua. Before the story broke, the BBC had received a whole 2 complaints about the show. Since the story broke, that has gone up to 30,000 complaints. That means a whole 29,998 complaints were generated not by the broadcast, but by the fake offence of the Conservative press. That's an increase of... wait for it... 1,500,000%.

That's an awful lotta sheep!


I find it sad that the Conservative press can have this kind of negative effect on people. But wait, it gets worse...

Now, the News of the World has a story about Brand and a threesome when the story broke, a so called fat cat scandal at the BBC, and Georgina Baillie starring in a hardcore porn film. Here's where the sleepfest hits maximum, complete with snoring!

Add to this the Daily Star Sunday's story about Georgina's porn film also featuring women dressed in Nazi outfits, and to be honest, I'm having trouble holding my eyes open.

I checked this story out a week ago, and discovered most everything that has been published today already. It didn't strike me as interesting, and it doesn't now, but the press doesn't have love flogging a story until it's not just dead, but into an advanced state of rigor mortis!

This story has more than run its course and done more than enough damage already. Let it go already! We're falling asleep here cos we're sooo interested... NOT!
