Another career suicide as reporter leaves The Register for broadcaster

goodbye and good luck
Your diminished audience (compared to this place) will no doubt welcome a new face.
Sadly I know that I'm not alone amongst those who comment here who have made a concious decision to boycott anything controlled by the Murdoch family so we won't be able to follow your career at this point in time.
However, I am sure this assignment is a mere stepping stone to greater things and once again we can enjoy your wit and barbs.

Re: Reporter leaves The Register
Regardless of what you think of Mr Orlowski's articles, he *is* a part of the furniture now and has earned his place (I admit that the furniture in question might be a little bit bit worse for wear after having the local kennel club round for a sleep-over :) )
Good luck Agent J ;)

Move #1...
... in the ElReg annexation of News International.
Phase two will be signalled by the key word "boffin" being read out by Sky Newscasters, and the introduction of 'linguini' and 'brontosaurus' in any story that requires accurate dimensions to be conveyed. Steer clear of introducing the ones about volume for now...
Fare thee well!

We'll know that the reverse happened and James has been Borged into the Murdoch/Fox collective when stories appear under his byline about "Terror on the Internet! Five rights you can surrender to defeat ISIS and the child predators!!" or if James is named as an accessory in a phone hacking scandal.

these were her parting words...

Re: Pity
Click! has its odd moments, that's about it, regarding Tech on the BBC. So little imagination with their programming/presenters, stale and staid.
Just predictably, establishment scripted and dull, 99.9% of the time. Zero technical debate of any substance, think Andrew Marr v Amber Rudd. Talk about a scripted narrative / accepting the answer wholesale, to push the desired objective.
The whole Whatapp/Privacy issue came across as BBC fed, Government Propaganda.
