Guilt.
Yeah, I can maybe understand him feeling vulnerable when he first went to radio 1 and got to know about Savile, the big star and all that. However as he got established himself and then went beyond having a significant career, he should have had the guts, along with plenty of others. At the very least in 2000 when Louis Theroux asked him outright if was a paedophile, he and the rest of them should have taken that as their cue to pipe up.
more 'people put their career before the needs of buggered children' or 'people put their career before the needs of raped children'
In his case, even after he had a significant career. You'd just think the worm of guilt might kick in at some point late in life when you've got less to lose (not just him of course). Easy to be critical and you never know how you'd act. However if you wanted to do something as a media figure, there are lots of investigative journalists you could speak to on the quiet, people you could suggest they interview etc. All of this applies to Esther Rantzen most of all of course.
Including some from more than a year ago. I wonder whether those deletions are new, or from when Savile was still alive?They're deleting a huge amount of posts
it's a grave matterWell the corpses are hardly likely to report it, are they?
The Cabinet Office has just issued a defamation notice to the blog. See here: http://tompride.wordpress.com/2012/...s-naming-high-profile-tory-in-savile-scandal/
