Any media mediocrity can do this as long as they are good at attention-seeking. I hope you're happy that this cretin is still getting paid six figure sums while the BBC will be shutting down 6 music, Asian Network and cutting budgets for BBC4.

He has been doing the breakfast show for 6 or so years so i cant see how he can maintain 1200 shows on "cheap shock value"

His show is constantly funny and original hence he is the longest serving breakfast DJ in R1 history.

Who do you prefer?

Listeners aren't exactly spoiled for choice when it comes to radio on a morning. Young listeners are not going to gravitate to Radio 2. Radio 3 and and 6 don't have the mass market appeal and local radio DJ's, lets face it, are uniformly terrible. It's a captive audience.

I don't listen to a lot of radio on the morning, but my favourite Radio DJ's are Adam Buxton & Joe Cornish.
