Thom Yorke has posted a slightly mad sounding message in the diary section of his band's official website, which seems to be attacking NME over their publication of those previously reported comments in which Yorke is said to have labelled industry types "fucking retards".
In a post entitled 'Like Anyone Gives A Rat's Arse', he writes: "Is it a quiet week for the NME by any chance? SHOCK HORROR not much to say UMM SHOCK horror. I remember now, tape recorders record what yu[sic] say ... which may be taken down and used as evidence against you at a later date. Who is this jerk shooting his mouth off? Misdirected. Missquoted [sic]... distorted... out of context... oh it's me. I think. but im not sure. HA ha ha ha oh :)"
So that clears the matter up nicely, then.
