Jeremy hitting someone is just an alleged story, the BBC have said nothing apart from it was a fracas with a producer. Maybe he did hit someone, maybe he didn't. Even if he did we don't know why, how it happened, if he had his buttons pushed, and people can use the "you can't excuse hitting someone" argument, although everyone has a tipping point. For all we know Jeremy simply pushed someone in a light manner. The fact this apparently happened last week and wasn't reported till yesterday seems to imply it really wasn't that serious. If it was as bad as the media is making out Clarkson would have been arrested by the police last week.

Everything in the press is speculation and mostly likely over inflated so they can get people reading their sites and buying the papers. I wouldn't bother concluding opinions when there is literally nothing out there that tells us the exact thing that happened.

I don't think people are that angry, they just think he's dick and I watch Top Gear all the time
