I appreciate all the comments about Jim's notoriety but the way I see it...

We could sit and research all of the housemates and judge them for what we think we know about them before we watch them in the house. Jim's a wife beater, Dappy's violent, Jasmine's a home wrecker etc etc etc... or we can judge them on what we see in the Big Brother house, because we're watching them on Big Brother. That's what I choose to do. Ultimately it's not going to change the fact Jim has confessed to being a wife beater. It's just interesting to see how he acts around other people, to gain a greater understanding of him (and all the other housemates) as opposed to accepting printed word reports of what he's like.
