Ms Goody has made a fortune (and good luck to her) by the crass stupidity of the general public. She shot to fame as a result of winning a mind-numbingly boring TV show which plays on the vanity of the various social misfits, cranks and exhibitionists taking part. I can�t imagine why it is so popular, but there�s no accounting for taste.

Her current situation is tragic and not one I would wish upon anybody. I don�t know who described her as a �National Treasure�, but whoever it was should get out more.
God forgive me, I've never liked Jade Goody (I am sorry for her now she's ill) so I can't bring myself to offer a eulogy for her.
Your example is excellent.
I have recently listened to various radio phone-ins about the tragic circumstances Jade Goody now finds herself in.

It both amazes and disgusts me that that the Guardian reading so called caring liberal left wing, have come out with such disgusting remarks about her.

One person to phone in said 'I hope she hurrys up and dies, the racist bitch'.

This person was not on their own, others seem to think that she should go to hell, just for making a racist remark.

It is frightening to know the lengths some will go to, when it comes to anyone who dares to make a remark that some construe as being in the least bit racist.

I have said many time 'why are the left so nasty'? This is just another example of what I mean.

Why do you think that the person phoning in was a Guardian reading liberal left wing person?

I am guessing that the radio commentator did not ask the person's political viewpoint or which paper he read.

Are you just pandering to your own views again.

How about I say: "It both amazes and disgusts me that that the BNP supporting idiots, have come out with such disgusting remarks about her.

One person to phone in said 'I hope she hurrys up and dies, the racist bitch'"

Maybe that makes it true now?
National Treasure eh!

Is it just me I wonder who thinks that is a bad choice of words, given that treasure is often buried.

BTW, not a Goody lover, always considered her a loudmouthed chav, which was further enhanced by meeting her and being on the recieving end of the classic "Do you know who I am?"

I'll say no more - Mum always said if you haven't anything nice to say about someone, then say nothing.
While everyone is upset to know she is dying, hundreds of other people are dying all over the UK.

Do they get (or want) publicity, do they "sell" their stories to the newspapers and TV.

No they get on with it.

Unfortunately this woman is one of a crop of people who seem to be famous just for being famous.

They have little or no talent, no skills, and in many cases are not particularly nice people.

Why on earth people sit down and watch TV programs that show Jordan's (Katire Price) life in all its minute detail is beyond me.

In fact one of the saddest things I saw recently was that Jordan's book (which she probably did not even write) was a best seller.

I think Andy Warhol was right a few years ago when he said "one day everyone will be famous for 10 minutes".
I think the woman's vile, with no merits whatsoever. OK, so she's got cancer and she's dying. So what? We're all supposed to start loving her now?

I don't exactly wish her dead. I've lost relatives to cancer and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. But she's nobody special. Why the fuss?

Oh yes, of course - she sells newspapers.
Postdog

I'll say no more - Mum always said if you haven't anything nice to say about someone, then say nothing.

Your Mum seemed a very wise person, pity you did not take her advise.

=========================================

Why don't people who show no sentiment and ask why she is so special, just ignore any posts appertaining to her?

I refer you all back to Postdog's mother's advise.
"I don't exactly wish her dead"?

how touching. very compassionate about a dying woman.

bet you can't wait to mock her funeral arrangements, maybe have a dig over her children's little distraught faces.

I am amazed at how heartless you people are.


AOG from reading another post, it seems that you have difficulty in knowing if a post is directed to you or someone else, so I will use your name and repeat the question:

It both amazes and disgusts me that that the Guardian reading so called caring liberal left wing, have come out with such disgusting remarks about her.

One person to phone in said 'I hope she hurrys up and dies, the racist bitch'.


Why do you think that the person phoning in was a Guardian reading liberal left wing person?
Yeah but ay least I am not an obvious racist with a penchant for having a go at muslims, unlike some I could mention.

My mum alwayssaid if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything, but for you, I'll make the exception.

Of course she's a 'national treasure' like Stephen Fry is a 'national treasure'. She represents something uniquely British, just as he does.We have to have an example of each, to celebrate our national identity !

fred you ridiculous
a national treasure for example is dame judy dench or julie walters get real !
someone who given something great to society
bet you can't wait to mock her funeral arrangements, maybe have a dig over her children's little distraught faces.

What makes you think I'd do that, Sara? Her kids have nothing to do with this. I don't like the woman and I really couldn't care less about her funeral arrangements. I don't see why I should change my mind or be expected to say lovely things about her just because she's dying.
She shot to fame as a result of winning a mind-numbingly boring TV show .
If your referring to BB Newjudge she didn't win it, she was just such a loud mouth that people had trouble ignoring her.
This is a the same media that has spent all of her celeb life calling her all the names under the sun and now because she has something that thousands of people a year get and die of, somehow she is a hero.
She is what she is, a publicity junky to her last breath.
Money isn't going to make up for the fact that she spent her last few months on earth in front of the camera rather than with her children. All the money in the world will not bring her back to them, the one person they will need as they grow up.
She definately is not an inspiration.

The publicity given to this Goody saga is disgusting. Whilst purchasing a newspaper from a supermarket yesterday, an elderly gentleman, obviously very aggrieved, seeing the front page news (and picture) of Jade Goody, said, "My daughter is worse off than that". I am not sure if he was directing the remark at anybody in particular. Although the area was quite busy with customers nobody responded but it left me wondering what his situation might have been ... wife or daughter maybe suffering or near death .... minus the benefits which have been accrued by Jade Goody and her new "hubby". �3,500 dress donated by Harrods boss, �1000's still to come, and all because she fell into disrepute. Certainly a good lesson for youngsters these days and what a lovely example of the injustice as displayed in deggers' link. Of course, if AOG's extreme right wing rule, none of us will be permitted to comment.!!! hth
