Not sure the people who were raped by him would be that sympathetic towards her to be honest Jogon.

I didn't suggest or say they would?It was, of course, before we all knew anything about it.And in deference to the new regime and political correctness I suppose she ought not to be allowed that view.

Reading through this thread it seems that some people don't distinguish between:(1). whitewashing Jimmy Savile. and(2). criticising the sloppy report which came out of Operation Yewtree. There is no logical connection between 1 and 2.

Id say thats too simple an analysis,and trying to pigeon hole people is a bit too far to be honest.Perhaps we should now all agree that we cant change peoples opinions by just repeating our own,perhaps its time to let this lie,i for one will only monitor from now on.

My sentiments too cnosni, as posted earlier. All should accept that others opinions may differ, debate is shifting rapidly from the subject directly (JS) to no more than attempts to enforce acceptance of each other's opinions, not really what we are here for.
