BBC STARS 'OBVIOUSLY PAID TOO MUCH'

ANY moron can see that Jonathan Ross and Chris Moyles are paid far, far too much, according to a major review of BBC salaries.

'Pay me or go to jail'

The report, commissioned by the corporation's governing body, the BBC Trust, said in some cases the stars would not be able to earn any money at all if they did not work for the BBC.

The review was launched after the BBC ran adverts threatening to throw people in jail unless they contributed to Ross's £6 million annual salary.

The report stated: "Chris Moyles is exactly the sort of bumptious prick you could meet any day of the week in a Leeds boozer.

"If it wasn't for the BBC he'd be selling fags out the back of a van and getting his head kicked in three times a week."

The report also described Ross as 'one of this country's leading jumped-up researchers with a dirty mouth'.

It added: "If he was working at ITV he'd be booking guests for the Jeremy Kyle show and would be known round the office as 'annoying Japanese cartoon guy'."

Trust chairman Sir Michael Lyons said: "If these salaries are the result of the market, then the market is obviously fucked."

But the BBC defended its stars, insisting Jeremy Paxman could earn at least £940,000 a year treating people like shit on Channel 4.
