Viewers query why Jeremy Clarkson article not discussed on BBC ... (The National)

VIEWERS have questioned Laura Kuenssberg's decision not to discuss an article written by Jeremy Clarkson about Meghan Markle.

“A lot of the time we were given more positive stories about Harry and Meghan from the royal story officially.” “We had lots of dealings with the press officers at the time for Harry and Meghan and in particular I remember some of my dealings with them going back to when they were still in the family”, she said. Asked about reports of a “conspiracy” against the couple by Buckingham Palace and the media, Newton said this did not stack up. Upon posting the list of guests appearing on Sunday’s show, many urged the broadcaster to “please ask” about the article while another said the article was an “outstandingly vicious and hateful” piece. However, Kuenssberg did not ask any of the panel about Clarkson’s piece, which has been described on social media as “vicious” and “misogynistic”. The Sun’s editor Victoria Newton appeared on the BBC’s Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg where she was asked about a series of front pages reporting Prince Harry and Markle want an “apology” over the way they have been treated.

Jeremy Clarkson now likely has three more seasons to continue doing more for the farming industry, and a sheep farmer named James Rebanks said that Clarkson had done more for farming in one series than 30 years of the BBC’s long-running farming program Countryfile. According to [Small Screen](https://www.small-screen.co.uk/clarksons-farm-season-2-release-date-2/), it even has a likelihood of Season 3 and a possibility for Season 4. While there is, of course, a fair amount of comedy that is right on brand for Jeremy Clarkson, the series has also been praised by everyday farmers for bringing awareness to how difficult their life is and how little money they make from it.

Jeremy Clarkson Meghan Markle Jabs Get Backlash, Host Responds (Variety)

Jeremy Clarkson has issued a statement following backlash against his inflammatory comments about Meghan Markle in a column for The Sun.

The parting of ways came at a great cost to the broadcaster, for which “Top Gear” was worth more than £50 million per year, and brought in a massive global audience. “My views are and have always been clear when it comes to misogyny, bullying and the treatment of women by the media,” wrote Emily Clarkson. The arse that emitted him, as I said yesterday, is Rupert Murdoch,” said Pullman on Monday. In the column, which Clarkson writes weekly for The Sun, he suggests that Prince Harry has no “control” over his actions anymore, largely thanks to Markle. 16 column, titled “One day, Harold the glove puppet will tell the truth about A Woman Talking B*ks,” the former “Top Gear” presenter wrote of Markle: “I hate her. I’m horrified to have caused so much hurt and I shall be more careful in future.”

Violent misogynistic fantasies like Jeremy Clarkson's are not new ... (The Guardian)

The diatribe against Meghan shows how low the rightwing media is willing to go, writes Guardian columnist Zoe Williams.

He would have us believe that he’s merely returning to a freer, more honest time, when blokes could be blokes in the pages of newspapers, without the threat of “cancellation”. All that matters is that a hate figure has been created, a shortcut, a shibboleth, a means by which bigots can identify one another and give voice to their prejudice, without fear of censure. It’s all so obvious, that’s what is galling: an obvious bid to sow division, to spur hatred, to justify misogynistic fantasies under the cover of a splenetic royalism, to dress up hate speech as fair comment.

The angry critic angle only works when the critic has something unique to say; in so many of these columns, Clarkson has joined the existing chorus of these papers in his own mismatched voice. The tone is familiar to anyone who knows Clarkson's work, joke formats you'd recognize from any Top Gear essay mixed in with a certainty that he knows better than you. That was the theme for almost the entire run of the show; Top Gear would not be Top Gear without Clarkson's ability to effortlessly move between the poetic and the crass, but his process somehow always seemed to come with either making someone else angry or getting angry himself. [short-lived talk show](https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/a14480859/jeremy-clarkson-talk-show/), they trusted him to revive the once-valuable Top Gear brand in his own image and stood by that version of the show for 13 years.
