"Like a bad kebab", Jeremy Paxman, Newsnight on Greece and the Eurozone

NOT FUNNY. Editorial judgement? Media Ethics?
On a level with Jeremy Clarkson, in 2007?

Update: Just found the Paxman quote has also been covered by Keep Talking Greece, and by Logios Hermes

Kindinologies continue, from all quarters: Article in Bild (Kathimerini)
