Talk:Jim Shelley (TV critic)

No criticism?

What, no criticism? Shame, I thought someone would have written a piece about what a pompous, demeaning, snide, base, insensitive and good for nothing turd this man is. Oh well, I'm not going to invent stuff just to vent my vendetta against Shelley. Seriously though, this article does need some more information, maybe a picture (though preferably not The Mirror heading above his column, with the critic sneering at the reader). That really doesn't put a good image in one's mind concerning the article's content, and it's probably copyrighted to "Da Miwah" anyway. Food for thought.

I could not agree with you more. I came here to make exactly the same comment! He is now at the Daily Mail and he is the male equivalent of Jan Moir, another of their columnists. They are both poisonous journalists who clearly have personal axes to grind. --P123cat1 (talk) 16:32, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
