I thought he was a jerk on the breakfast show and have consistly hated everything else the witless bag of shite has ever done. I was not surprised to read an article in this week-ends Sunday Times where he came across as a complete cnut. The main thust of the article was about him constantly trying to cop a feel of the female reporter. Did he expect her to write a nice piece? Twat!</p> <p>EDIT<br /> It was Camilla Long but the article has been taken down from the website. Quite a lot of twittering about it flowing throough the ether apparently.<br /> <a href="http://www.wordmagazine.co.uk/content/the-hairy-cornflake-may-be-toast">This gives the gist</a> </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=44228#post-126627 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 09:25:08 +0000 donttellhimpike 126627@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Touched a raw nerve with me.

High Dudgeon and hairy cornflake. This man cannot be under-satirised.<br /> ...and verily it has given me an idea.... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=44228#post-126569 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 15:57:54 +0000 Duff 126569@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Former Raidio 1 'jock' Dave Lee Travis has once more stunned friends and colleagues alike by sensationally walking out during a meeting with the Burmese pro-democracy campaigner Aung San Suu Kyi. And it's not the first time the 'Hairy Cornflake' has thrown in the towel in a high profile manner. Older readers may remember that he caused a media storm when he quit his popular radio show live on air and in high dudgeon back in 1993.</p> <p>The bearded DJ was due to meet Ms Suu Kyi, a self proclaimed fan of his BBC World Service radio show that she was understood to have listened to during her time under house arrest in Burma, as part of a planned tour of BBC's Broadcasting House earlier today. And at first things looked to be fine with both Ms Suu Kyi and Mr Travis shaking hands and smiling warmly at one another. But very soon after the initial introductions onlookers were stunned when without any warning whatsoever DLT strode from the room looking peeved.</p> <p>Speaking later an emotional Travis told reporters, "Pro-democracy figures are changing in this world and I'm not happy with it. Changes are being made here which go against my principles, and I just cannot agree with them. Time was you knew where you stood with the likes of Nelson Mandella, but now what do we have? A mere slip of a girl and she's accorded the same levels of world admiration as he once had. Really folks, if that's the way it's going to be then it's time for me to go. It's been a blast, but so long."</p> <p>Former colleagues on Radio 1 were quick to close ranks and come to Travis's defence. Tony Blackburn said, "Dave's got high principles and if it didn't feel right for him then he just couldn't live a lie like that." And <em>Deal or no Deal</em> host, Noel Edmonds who often had Travis as a guest on his once popular <em>Noel's House Party</em> added, "That's Dave for you. He doesn't suffer fools and he's his own man at the end of the day." Mr Blobby another <em>House Party</em> regular and drinking buddy of Travis was unavailable for comment, but his management released the following statement on his behalf, "Blobby blobby blobby." </p>
