It really shows how Chris' popularity has taken off in recent years. When he was on afternoons and perhaps even into the early breakfast show years, he was the person that everyone loved to hate, probably because of an image created by the media. Now, as more and more people have taken the time to listen for themselves, that media image has been pretty much blown out of the water and a nice by-product of that is that people are willing to donate for this cause - which they also recognise as a monumental challenge in any case. Also, he started off as the underdog (though he isn't now in my opinion), what with his size and we all know how much we like to support the underdog.
Really, we tend to consider ourselves as the so-called die-hard fans on here, but actually that's not necessarily true. We are some of the die-hard fans, but when you look at the audience figures, we can't be the only die-hard fans.

You are a disgrace and I'm looking forward to when someone you respect dies so I can rub your liberal face in it.
