A Statement
Hello Folks!!

I would like to make a short statement concerning the current predicament at the BBC following the apparent suspension of Gary Linekar. Despite being a well-renowned reporter of current affairs and sports in my adopted home of downtown Pyongyang in North Korea, I have not been approached by the BBC to present Match of the Day, despite rumours to the contrary. If an offer was made, I'd certainly consider my options, but I don't think I could work for an organisation which is notorious for its state-sponsored media bias. Besides, I'm currently happy in my role working for the Dear Leaders Most Glorious Media Gazette right here in Pyongyang.

Thanks.
