Sun sets, sun rises, Mail bashes BBC

Another day, another Daily Mail BBC outrage story. Following on from "Sachsgate" and that incident where John Barrowman got his manhood out on national, er ... radio, Radio 1's Chris Moyles is the latest miscreant. Moyles, of course, is no stranger to controversy, so Monkey only wonders why it took him so long to get caught up in the current round of BBC bashing. But he has finally delivered the goods, having apparently suggested that Poles make good prostitutes. The Beeb is defending him thus far, saying he was poking fun at stereotypes. But based on previous events, a public apology can't be too far off.
