It bemuses everyone in Britian that after being run out of Britian for being a talenetless hack who may or may not have been seriously involved in the recent press bribery and phone hackery debacle. He just went to the U.S and started a TV career instead.
Then , you remeber he's a Murdoch stooge being rewarded for years of loyal cronyism (yes, yes CCN, not fox. I know. You think he got that job due to his journalistic accumen. MEGALULZ). Though he also had a fairly solo career whilst at the 'mirror', which is basically a serious contender for the most guttural tabloid of them all.
Anyway, one of my favorite parts of him being run out of town. His feud with Hislop (one of our few proper legit journalists).
