Writing Legend?

Just brilliant. Perhaps the only reason why I watch a BBC program is because of a particularly, tall, reckless, and moronic man named- Jeremy Clarkson. For those who don’t know much about cars or have little interest in all things four wheels you might as well skip this article- actually keep reading.

He has been called a, racist, homophobe, even a baboon, but for some reason the BBC wont let him go, and neither will I. The main host of the most watched show in the world, Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson’s provocateur attitude is most likely the only feature that appeals to his audience. However, this provocateur is a Journalist by heart.

Sadly I have most likely read all of Jeremy Clarkson’s car articles. But why? Unlike the majority of automotive journalist, Jeremy Clarkson gets it. When people read an article they don’t want to sit down and read some dry article where the reviewer explains how wide the door opens or how many empty boxes you can fit in the trunk. And that’s where Clarkson differentiates himself. You may not be a car buff but his car articles will still pull you in. For example, Clarkson’s article might be on the brand new Toyota Corolla, but the entire article will go on talking about a new toaster oven, and how it bakes bread, and then briefly compare the two at the end.

His style of writing is creative to say the least, his reviews are perhaps the only newspaper articles I prefer to follow online. However, he is not so much a mentor, rather an exemplar of new and creative journalism.Collection of Jeremy Clarkson Articles.
