Yes it is of interest to me. I don't like how the media works sometimes and the fact that they can destroy people, especially when there is profit to be made and they can get away with it. 'Trial by Media' I believe it's called. Very sad - especially when the person they are attacking is dead, so he can't defend himself.

I replied to Omah's comments he made to my post a few pages back, so I responded.

Your standpoint appears to be those who accuse are wrong/ mercenary, however those who are accused deserve a fair hearing, do you not see the double standard?

All those who are accusing are alive. They can have their say and tell whatever story they like to the police or media and the media will be more than happy to print it, as it's in their interest to and they are allowed to by law. Jimmy Savile is dead, so therefore cannot fight back in any way-shape or-form. Nobody in his family (what little he has) is going to fight his corner, unlike Michael Jackson who would have had his family fight for his good name if he had died a lot earlier before he first got accused.

Also if you read what I first wrote on page 29 of this thread - 13th post down, you will read my other views regarding this man and the whole politically correct nanny state of today which was not so apparent years ago.
