Clarkson sacked by Amazon

SmallTown said:
Absolutely everything to do with you. You saw fit to personally attack me as usual. A few of the pathetic "small-town is the bad guy" stragglers decided to pile on. Well done you. Glad your hatred of someone you've never met has had such a reaction. You can be proud.

As I said above, I have not mentioned you in any thread or personally attacked you, yet you have singled me out on several occasions, felt fit to name-call me to other posters and then have the audacity to accuse me of staring the pot and bullying you. If anything it is you who are trying to bully me and tarnish my name with other users on this thread and site.

If I had done half as much as you have on here, you would have been running off to admin now to get me banned.

I think somewhere down the line, you owe me an apology.

What Clarkson said may have been offensive and in bad taste but he is known for hyperbole. It was an exaggeration, not to be taken literally.

The number of complaints show an apology was needed yet some of the public comments are as much over the top as his original comments.

He's the current bad guy.
Instead of others in the public eye....

I hate to say this, but you and SmallTown just don't seem to click.

Well I live in the sea which could be a problem, but I'd happily bring him a daily mackerel.

You know, someone asked me the other day if dolphins slept. I felt really daft because I couldn't remember. I'm guessing we probably do or I'd be feeling really tired right now.
 
I used to enjoy the oafishness of Top Gear. We really enjoyed the shows for quite a while.

Ultimately it morphed into three old men, out of touch with society, bumbling around just on the edge of being unacceptably misogynistic and too right-wing for the mainstream media.

Piers Morgan, Jeremy Clarkson, and their ilk, think they can say anything and if it offends then "it's provoking healthy debate". They're just awful people really.

Yeah, funny. Encourage the bullying. It's not just on this thread BTW. Check out the Tesla drivers thread. A couple of guys went straight in to insulting me when I was nowhere near it.

Y'all can joke all you like but you know what you're doing. If petty in fighting and bullying is your thing then have at it

Not only has Meghan not contributed anything to the world of entertainment, she is now ensuring that one of the country's few talented presenters will never work again.

Thanks, Meg.

She ? She has done no wrong here and insulted no one. Clarkson or Morgan on the otherhand.....

I have gone through this thread again to see if I had said anything wrong yesterday and cannot for the life of me see why you have felt the need to jump down my throat other than to deflect the spotlight from you. You've accused me of bullying and getting others to bully you, yet there is no evidence of this - please point it out if there is.

As Adrian Cronauer said in the Good Morning Vietnam film, “You are in more dire need of a blow job than any white man in history.”

Fascinating that you think you've been bullied in this thread, despite literally everyone telling you otherwise.

What specifically has bullied you? If you're gonna quote fellas post above as your line example you're going to need to grab a few more packs of straws.

If I put a poll up now about which forum member gets involved in petty infighting, who do you reckon will top that poll? I've stuck up for you plenty before but you're the architect of your own problems 99% of the time.

So it's not only me? I honestly don't know what his issue is.
 
I see a lot of ignored content on this thread for my account. I am going to assume the resident troll has said something and is now being 'attacked' and its become personal again :)

Clarkson made a blunder. If people don't want to be associated with him after that such as Amazon, then that is their choice to make, He's an independent contractor so technically can't be sacked, he just won't have his contract extended.

Personally, its a shame, I like GT and CF. I generally find him amenable, he's a knowledgeable guy and as a previous poster said, he did a lot to highlight farming issues in the UK. What he said about Meghan was wrong, his punching Oisin and Piers Blowbag wasn't the best thing to do, but people claiming it makes him a violent monster is a bit overblown. He punched someone he shouldn't have and paid the consequences for it as far as the victim wished to proceed and the other person he decked, he should have been knighted for :)

I can well believe the Prime Video revenue stream does not return a profit. Its part of a much bigger strategy.

Amazon prime video won't make money, very few people subscribe to prime FOR video, they get it as part of overall prime , but they spend a fortune on content. We don't know the details as it's not separated out on Amazon's accounts but you can't say it generates xyz amount of revenue because of how it's packaged
