Huw Edwards - 6 month suspended sentence (pg 107)

[The blue phantom]

He was 17 when it started, he was 58, if you think that’s ok live with it, I think it’s wrong, you’re a wrong un thinking any different.

You've Labelled him a borderline pedophile umpteen times, insist they are young boys he's been pissing about with, You're altering things to suit your narrative which you've displayed for hours on end here last night.

It's clearly not just a 'man buys porn' story though, is it?

Why not? Is it any different if you buy it directly from the person making it. Would 'man commissions porn' be better? How is it any different from literally everyone with an OnlyFans subscription giving regular money to a single woman they're obsessed with? Except the scale?

Let's be honest, we all cheer every week for men who have paid women to have sex with them, yet everyone's getting high and mighty about a newsreader paying a woman to send some naked pictures.

 

[meeesh]

Huw playing the false nonce role.

Nah just bored with this shit now,it’s always shit when the name comes out,stops everyone from guessing and hoping,plus it would of ticked off a few more days closer to season starting

 

[snorky]

I would take the moral highground..

if it wasn't for that one fucking sheep.

Grappling with demons over many years suggests that maybe he was unable to come out during his more formative years (social stigma etc.) and the "Song of praise" ,"family virtues" and "national treasure" stuff has been a facade he's had to deal with in order to further his career and enhance his public reputation. Finally the lid has blown off so to speak.
He wouldn't be the first.
Just a theory I'm putting out there...who knows atm..?

A daunting and complex subject analysed into one bite-sized issue.
Man buys porn.
Excellent - much admiration. I believe the parlance is slicing.

You are, for some reason, desperate to equate someone watching porn with someone spending 35k on one person, and the levels of obsession/addiction/desperation for personal attention that suggests.

Why? I'm not sure.

And, to address your example, plenty of footballers caught with prostitute are reported on - with none of the same "leave him alone" reaction from the media or general public.

Add in a desire to completely ignore the other accusations made against him by other young people.

If it was a 60 year old watches porn story it wouldn't even make the pages of the Toy Town Gazette.

But it isn't. And that is why it is news.

Has anyone ever suggested that a player's career should be over because they had sex with a prostitute? During lockdown? Should Kyle Walker have been fired? Phil Foden? Should their careers be over?

Does the Bbc have a nonces room where they all get together.Wierd that a lot of people who worked for them are wrong uns.

organisation of over 24,000 ... how many have been exposed as 'wrong uns' say in the last decade ?

You mean it's a story because The Sun said he'd been doing something that was a criminal offence. But he hadn't.
