[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 283185, member: 33"] I was watching [I]Good Morning Britain [/I]this morning I couldn't help thinking John Simpson is a clever man and he knew exactly what he was doing. The story he was telling related to his real life experience on which a character in his novel is based. So the question put to him by Kate Garraway was one that he must have expected and it was a story he must have told many times. He's a seasoned broadcaster and knows exactly what he can and can't say on TV. I think he planned it all. He would have had 5 minutes on breakfast TV to promote his book but because he said w*****r he now has had extensive coverage in the mainstream media and on social media which has gone on for hours. That's publicity for his book that would otherwise have cost thousands of pounds. As far as Mr Simpson is concerned, it was mission accomplished. [/QUOTE]
