Re: BBC Presenter Suspended

He’s not going to survive now, but I’ve no real sympathy for a snowflake who threatens to out a celebrity then acts surprised they aren’t happy about it.

Tip of the iceberg I suspect. The tabloid chequebooks will be out. Might as well have a sweep on how many by the weekend.

If it can be proven the BBC presenter requested and received the photographs from a minor, then he has broken the law.
There is a crime in making the image and in possessing it. Possibly there’s a crime of incitement as well. I don’t know, IANAL.

One interesting point is that its sexualisation in the image that makes it a crime - it is possible for a photo to be sexualised, and therefore illegal, even if a child isn’t naked, and it is also possible for the photo to be legal even if the child is (so for example a photo of your own pre-school children streaking across the beach isn’t actually against the law). Almost certainly besides the point in this case though.

Re: BBC Presenter Suspended

You can’t get much further a fall from grace. Given the public perception of the alleged man in recent times to this….regardless of how this turns out I can’t see him coming back from this.

Wise not to mention a name until it is announced on MSM.

There may be legal implications.

There absolutely are legal implications, and anyone putting a name in print whilst not possessing the evidence they would be asked to produce when being sued for libel is a 24 carat moron.

Re: BBC Presenter Suspended

Just wondering if any of these people are being paid for their stories, and why go through the Currant Bun, rather the proper channels.

Even if this is person is innocent they're ruined, which seems wrong.

Cliff Richard survived the BBC reporting live from a helicopter above his house while it was being raided. An innocent person wrongly accused can definitely survive if they’re famous and well resourced enough to rebuild their reputation. It’s powerless people getting hounded out of their council house because Mad Sharon over the road has a massive gob and a tiny brain that suffer in cases like this.

I wonder why the Sun hasn’t named the BBC personality?

In fairness it’s BBC Annual Report day. A cut and paste story off the shelf every year. Like rail fares going up on 2nd January. Or French air traffic controllers going on strike in the school holidays.

Re: BBC Presenter Suspended

I suppose a clue might be in unexplained personnel changes on BBC programmes.
I've spotted one change, but it might be the wrong person. Which highlights a greater reason for revealing the correct person.
