I certainly was a fan of the show. However, I'm happy to see that the BBC stood up for what was right and didn't succumb to the demands of the general public and the all mighty bottom dollar.
Regardless of what additional details may or may not exist, based on the official BBC report, Clarkson was fully in the wrong and admitted to be. Subjecting any coworker or even a third party to that sort of verbal abuse not to mention the physical assault is despicable behavior and Clarkson should be held accountable for it. It's actually sad that he will most likely wind up coming out ahead financially in the end. All it will do is serve to reinforce to himself and others that that type of behavior is acceptable. The last thing we need is more entitled narcissists running around.
