The public is being told to avoid the Amis-Ford-Hitchens altercation. This display of 'animosity' is simply an attempt to win peer group recognition. In order to dominate the hierarchy, these creatures must fight one another in a public ritual that to outsiders appears terrifyingly real. It is in fact nothing of the sort. Genuine spats are never conducted so openly. And the proximity of "The Guardian" is evidence that the contest is purely attention seeking. Members of the public are warned to keep their distance from all such rituals, as they can lead to drowsiness and, in rare instances, coma. The phenomenon will pass rapidly if denied the oxygen of publicity.

Looks like this one will run and run if my neo-con broth has decided to stick his oar in.
ReplyDeleteNot sure that any of his gin-soaked contributions will add much though
Amis grasped the nettle. Ford (Anna) stung. He grasped that it was better than puffery.
ReplyDeleteIt is great to see that my friend is up to his old tricks. Authors do so bang on about the same old stuff as if the public really cares. Why oh why can we not have a debate about something interesting for once? Like me.
ReplyDeleteWhat an incestuous bunch these people are. Why does anyone care what they think. It shows Anna Ford in a new light. Time waster.
ReplyDeleteBoring
