A simple burn written in the form of a Twitter bio…

After being described by a Fox News presenter as “elaborate moaning and whining”, Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood has snapped back at the broadcasting channel in a subtle way.

Kat Timpf appeared on Fox’s Greg Gutfeld Show where she gave her take on who will be inducted into next year’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall Of Fame.

Timpf said that Radiohead would be shortlisted “seeing as that it’s about fame, and not talent”, adding: “I don’t even like them, but the kind of guys that I like have to be three things: strange, malnourished and sad. Those guys always like Radiohead.”

Continuing on to describe them as: “elaborate moaning and whining over ringtone sounds”.

Naturally, Jonny Greenwood wasn’t a fan of this. In retaliation the guitarist has changed his Twitter bio for his 137,000 followers to read: “my life in the gush of boasts……….’strange, malnourished and sad’ (fox news – *spits three times*)
