Dan Wootton apologised for that Laurence Fox interview on GB News and got all the responses he deserved
You’ll be aware by now of the vile comments made by Laurence Fox about journalist Ava Evans on Dan Wootton’s GB News show on Tuesday.
The exchange went viral after it was shared by Evans herself, who said it made her feel ‘physically sick’. And this is why.

Now Fox has been suspended by the channel while Wootton issued an apology saying he was ‘in no way amused’ by what Fox had to say.
10/10 for confidence for assuming he’ll be back on air tonight, obviously, especially after Fox did this.
It later turned out that Wootton wouldn’t be on air at all after he too, like Fox, was suspended by GB News.
And his apology got all the responses it deserved.

‘I was in no way amused by the comments,’ explains man who was seen on TV smirking, giggling and laughing at the comments. He could get a job writing speeches for Rishi Sunak. https://t.co/nrT7zfNF0O

Dan Wootton really let himself down last night. A crying shame as he's always seemed a decent guy https://t.co/Oilsgxzj8l

Any decent presenter would’ve cut Laurence Fox off immediately, not sat there loving it and smirking along. That’s basic, decent broadcasting. Wootton is a nasty piece of work who showed his true face last night, and he’s woken up realising that everyone knows what he is #GBNews https://t.co/BTcEJPfAyB

Poor Dan Wootton. Shock and discomfort written all over his face as Laurence Fox soils himself in public again. pic.twitter.com/tI8Rhq9Ukp
