This is a few years old but I just found it now. Thought it was worth posting considering how even more egregious some have become around the world to deny the truth and debate.
Sadly, some of these same disgusting cover-ups via silence occur today in media. Certainly in Canada the protection of some has risen to a level of debauchery quite damaging to our reputation, perhaps irreparably.
Whenever you know the truth and speak it, stick to your guns. To hell with the creeps and their even creepier, low-life defenders. Thy dared to ban him for outing a sick member of his society. What does that say about those others in his society?
Former Sex Pistols frontman John Lydon has said he is still bitter about “being banned” from BBC radio after speaking out against Jimmy Savile.
Lydon, better known as Johnny Rotten, has referred to an interview he did back in 1978, in which he commented that Savile was “into all sorts of seediness.
“We all know about it but we’re not allowed to talk about it”.
He told Piers Morgan on Life Stories: “I did my bit, I said what I had to (but they didn’t air that).
“I found myself banned from BBC radio for quite a while, for my contentious behaviour. They wouldn’t state this directly, there'd be other excuses.”
