For those mercifully unfamiliar with Burchill's long history of unremitting horror, the Wikipedia article is good for cribbing and de-neutralising - David Gerard (talk) 23:46, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

It's only scratching the surface. I used to sometimes read her weekend Guardian column a few years ago, out of morbid curiosity/boredom, & there'd very regularly be something fairly offensive. I remember the Irish-baiting comments (though I didn't realise it became a legal issue until I looked it up again today). & There was this weird rant about fag hags (obviously not quite understanding the whole concept). Plus anti-Muslim comments aplenty & various other minority-bashing. WěǎšěǐǒǐďWeaselly.jpgMethinks it is a Weasel 00:21, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
I first read Burchill at the tail end of her NME career in 1982. It was amusing for a few months when I was fifteen - David Gerard (talk) 10:23, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
