Excellent example of entirely biased news reporting on the Beeb today regarding comments made by Jeremy Clarkson about lorry drivers and hookers. The article is entirely factual, though the order of these reported facts completely discredits the view of the 500 people referred to in the opening line.
Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson has prompted more than 500 people to complain to the BBC about a joke he made on Sunday's motoring show.
Clarkson, 48, was taking part in a lorry-driving task, when he joked about lorry drivers killing sex workers.
"Change gear, change gear, check mirror, murder a prostitute, change gear, change gear, murder. That's a lot of effort in a day," he said.
The BBC said the joke had made "ridiculous an unfair urban myth".
Forklift truck driver Steve Wright was jailed in February for killing five prostitutes in Ipswich.

I believe the bias is totally unfair on Jeremy and some (not all thank God) of his Top Gear mates.
After all they are seriously handicapped by suffering from continuous male menopause and laddishness.
Part of the evidence that convicted the Yorkshire ripper was the heal on his right shoe was worn away due to it being propped up on the accelearator pedal of his lorry.
Robert Black liked bundling little kiddies in the back of his van and was hard to catch due to the distance between abductions making it hard for the poilce to catch him...
The list is endless...and Clarkson, although incredibly inaccurate, could argue that he can substantiate his jape.
