I'm puzzled as to why Clarkson and other media rent-a-quote 'arseholes' were 'middle class bigots' standing naked and drivelling (a most attractive image!). Is this because they didn't see the class basis of the slatterns' behaviour and their celebration of wilful ignorance and prejudice in a wider sense and instead saw it as a narrower prejudice on racial grounds?
If they are 'bigots' because they found the behaviour of the three white women unacceptable, then I'm proud to count myself as a bigot too!
I'm inclined to agree about the off-camera 'coaching' however - the sudden changes of demeanour after the row came to a head in the media seemed too contrived to be true.
