You lot are still at it with GG?
I bet you'll be at it for as long as your commercial stations keep pumping this rubbing. What a bonanza this turned out to be! Better than they ever thought. Give the masses cakes, sexism, racism, fascism and religion and they'll be eating it all out of your hands! Stupid jokes about armpits and fa#rtcatchers! Oh, man!
Does anyone know anything either about Irwin or GG?

Give the issue these two little tests:
1) Had GG not expressed her opinion (which is you would have it) would you still be hearing about your lovely Stevey Boy?
2) In Stevey Boys' shows whose face do you see the most, Stevey's or the poor tortured animals? (that includes his audience LOL)
3)Compare that now with, say Attenborough's or a whole host of other nature researchers. How much of the show's time is taken by the host and how much by the animal or the audience? Audience is non-existent, right? And Attenborough's face is hardly ever seen, appearing only so as to speak -not chuck a show- to us directly and to explain a hell of a lot more than Stevey Boy will ever -would ever, had he lived- know!
What is the result of the comparison? I suggest that Stevey knew little about anything, working on a script given to him, much like George Bush and Howard, whereas Attenborough (and a whole host of others) put their knowledge to good use, making educational programs for schools from Preps to Unis.

What GG said is just what another person said. It so happened that she's a woman (and boy is she right about you lot of desparaging, insulting, oppressive se xual nohopers! You fell right into her trap) -So yes, it so happened that she's a woman, a hero for the better informed women (though informed people very seldom have "heroes") and one who works with her brain rather than her groin, as did our very own "legend" Stevey, or any number of football or rugby players, or, as some woman told me today Naomi somebody or other in one of the Comm stations!

In the end, darlings, it's courses for horses and horses for jockeys. Each to his/her own. N'est pas?
