Open and shut case? 3:32pm on 29 Oct 2008 Oh dear, Rod. If you are representative of the level of policital savvy of the BBC management, I really do fear for the future of public broadcasting in the UK.

I really hope for your sake you posted your blog BEFORE the two guys in question had been suspended. Otherwise your big boss is gonna be, well, cheesed off with you, shall we say!

I am 26, just in case you think I must be a geriatric Tory from Tunbridge Wells because I am not buying into your view of the world.

Which brings me to the point, finally - the issue is not whether it is an open or shut case, or what you or I or anyone else thinks of this or of the two men involved.

The issue is that what has transpired has caused serious problems for your employer, that a legal view may be that it is unlawful, and that I felt real anger when I read your blog.

I was angry because it could have been my grandfather, it could have been me or my sister getting a phone call from a radio prankster and being publicly humiliated.

The point that I have not seen anyone else make is that this could happen to anyone, given the right circumstances. If it is OK for the BBC to do this to whatever his name is and his granddaughter, it is OK for the BBC to do it to anyone.

So tell me, Rod, is it OK to do it to anyone?
Losing Change 3:33pm on 28 Oct 2008 Dear Russell, as you are clearly developmentally challenged, let me make some suggestions to help you with your writing, perhaps if you wrote better you may also become funny in time - say, by the time you're 78!
For today's lesson, we will look at your sentence "Actually, that's the only way my mind can realistically relate to all the manic panic of loss adjustment."
Alliteration is a powerful tool, sweetie, and you're clearly not mature enough to handle it effectively yet.
D for ability. A for effort, but unfortunately that isn't how we are judged in real life.
