... the second time whilst presenting "Police, Camera, Action". The irony continues!
Oh do exit right you bunch of people wanting to put the boot in to a man whose service to television journalism is hard to match.
Take your tabloid cr@p to a different forum.
Erm, well thanks for that ill informed little intervention there.
The point that RDJ was making is correct, and I followed it up with a further example. If you think making those points is "putting the boot in", then you're really rather naive.
Here's a quote from an article I wrote the on the subject last week;
Here's Alastair on This Morning in 1998 with a fresh faced Philip Schofield. Alastair's comments about not drinking at all when driving after his first drink driving conviction are very ironic, considering six years later he'd end up being convicted for drink driving a second time.

Quote:
"One thing is for sure, ITV News is worse off for no longer having Alistair Stewart at the helm of its bulletins. A top class newscaster with very few who can rival his on air enthusiasm and ability, coupled with his passion for the job."

According to the Mail Online "Mr Stewart had asked bosses whether he could apologise to his accuser privately, a friend told the Sunday Times, but they said this was not enough.
A friend also told the paper that despite ITV accusing him of 'errors of judgement' he had not previously received a single official warning from HR" - if that is true then it does seem unfair that he was not given a chance to change his ways
One on the UK's best known news broadcasters, who asked not be named, told MailOnline on Thursday: 'It's an absolute shambles and a disgrace.
'I don't know if this is cover for something else - if someone wanted him out anyway they should have allowed a more gracious retirement - but it gives our industry a bad name and a bad look. Intolerant, obtuse, disloyal and illiterate'. (I wonder who that was)

I would not believe anything the DM or ST claim. If they are not beating up the BBC it's ITV turn. It's in the papers' interests.

Normally, yes, but in this case the Daily Mail and General Trust have a 20% stake in ITN, so it probably isn't in the Daily Mail's interest to knock ITN as much as the BBC.
