HonestReporting’s biography, with links to important sources.

From RadioRote: The maverick British journalist Julie Burchill, who is a veritable household name in the UK, has decided to quit ‘The Guardian’ because of what she perceives as its biased views on Israel. As you might have heard, I’m leaving the Guardian next year for the Times, having finally been convinced that my evil populist philistinism has no place in a publication read by so many all-round, top-drawer plaster saints. (Well, that and the massive wad they’ve waved at me.) Once there, I will compose as many love letters to the likes of Mr Murdoch and Pres Bush as
