its on the main index page on the left. definitely true.
That article is bizarre.
Clearly they're suggesting Cohen has likened Clarkson to Saville. But that's just plain wierd.
The rest of he article reads as of its written by Clarkson.eg He wasn't drinking. He was annoyed about lack of Producers at the shoot earlier that day.
If the MoS report is true, what a absolutely disgraceful and sinister attack this is. For the BBC to compare someone who had a bit of a 'red mist' episode with a child-sex predator (however obliquely) is simply beyond the pale and completely unacceptable. Whoever is responsible should be outed and made to face the music.
A history of abuse against work colleagues is what I read into it. Them being too scared to speak out because of Clarkson's star status.
If its true he's toast and I'm not sure ITV/Sky/etc would want to employ someone like that.
That's how I read it. Who is this unnamed Chief?
Unsurprising anti BBC slant to the article and am instinctively loath to take much that the Mail say seriously. Context is important, but whatever the scum Savile being mentioned seems misjudged to say the least.
The BBC person knows darn well that mentioning Clarkson in the same sentence as the toxic, loathed name of Saville is enough to do the trick. Sinister tactic.

Read the story, it's a bombshell if true.
What on earth is that all about?
See #1876

It read like a Daily Mail anti BBC article.

Where does it say that? Its actually pro Clarkson , anti Cohen from what I make of it. There is nothing new or substantive to any of the claims
Unfortunately Cohen is probably more secure than Clarkson.
The Mail producing an anti-BBC article??? Well that's NEVER happened before has it?

The plot thickens.....
Not if he made statements comparing JC with Savile.
How I read it, the Mail isn't claiming Cohen's said anything. Well not on 'record' anyway!
Edit: No...no quotes attributed to Danny Cohen.
The BBC person didn't compare Clarkson to Savile but they compared people's reaction to the two blokes
896,000 sigs. Fastest growing petition in history, apparently.
In terms of public opinion, that's represents a whole lot of worth.
The opinion in the context of the petition is mud.
