Hi all
I don't like to see anyone visibly upset after receiving an abusive email or text messages. I am at a loss how this can be described as whining.
Chloe is not alone, a few weeks ago Sara Lou received a text saying that the originator did not like her voice. How could anyone be so mean, of course Sara Lou got on with her job. It's unpleasant to witness.
I watch quite a few shows with Chloe presenting and I have not found any misleading claims made about the New York collection. The obligatory caveat regarding mim grade of diamonds is always stated.
I would not hesitate for a second reporting the presenter to the ASA if I thought that they or the organisation was in any way misleading its audience.

Presenters put themselves willingly in the public eye and as such are open to scrutiny. That's part and parcel of the job. Anybody on television/radio needs to develop a hard skin because there will always be those that love them and those that don't. To openly whine about it on air is, for me, unprofessional and inexcusable. I'm sorry but the presenters that do this should develop a thicker skin OR get out of the business. I don't mean to sound harsh and as I say, I quite like Chloe BUT seeing somebody moaning about a text or email or something on a forum is, quite frankly, childish and I don't believe that TJC should allow this.
I don't tune in to see presenters moaning. I don't tune in to see presenters implying something about a piece of jewellery that isn't fact and I have, on a number of occasions, reported instances to the ASA where I believe a presenter has mislead. It is actually the role of ASA to monitor sales adverts/adverts to ensure that the public are not being misled so whilst I agree that TJC should be contacted, the ASA is actually a neutral third party who can intervene.
