Say it like you mean it, Jeremy

Jeremy Paxman offered viewers a less than entirely heartfelt apology last night after he dropped an F-bomb on unsuspecting Newsnight viewers. The mild-mannered presenter quoted liberally from Andrew Rawnsley's book, The End of the Party , during an interview with the author. Rather too liberally for the programme's editor, it turned out. "Apparently I'm told by our editor I have to apologise for quoting what you said the prime minister said, so honour satisfied now." See for yourself what Paxo said in last night's show, just over 12 minutes in . Easily offended readers, don't bother. We can only imagine what JP would have made of the apology after the show. Possibly a load of fu... oh we've run out of space.
