The interesting thing about the pieing of Jeremy Clarkson is the wave of anti-Clarkson sentiment that is sweeping through parts of the media in the aftermath. Did you ever hear anti-Clarkson jokes on Radio 4 comedy programmes? Well there have been at least 2 in the last week.

Perhaps it marks a turning point in his career, and it would be great if the BBC commissioners were taking note.
