Former BBC presenter

Former BBC presenter has been questioned by Police after woman claimed he sexually assaulted her on his much loved programme

While we obviously don’t the full facts yet it does make you wonder how many more allegations about former or current BBC presenters are going to come out

The whole corporation is rotten to the core

One allegation against one former presenter somehow becomes proof that an organisation with tens of thousands of employees is "rotten to the core". That's quite a leap. I'll wait for the facts before condemning everyone from the newsreaders to the bloke who fixes the studio lights.

It’s my opinion and to be fair with the number of former or current presenters working in the BBC under investigation it does make you wonder how many more allegations will come out

But yep you do you mate

When have I said that??

Ffs honestly man what is it with some folk 🤷🏻

I started a thread and straight away people are misreading it and jumping down my throat

For the record I will wait until all investigations are over until I make judgement especially considering the allegation in question was around 20 years ago

Think they can do what they want because they in a position of so called power or are famous

Of course not all allegations turn out to be true and we will have to wait for the outcome but if it’s true then it’s yet another nail in the BBCs coffin

It’s a huge company and just like many others, they all have their predators so it’s not just them! There will be 100’s on victims for all over the workforce and most of those will be unheard as you’re even less likely to be listened to when it’s not the BBC.

No fan of the BBC and its cover ups but HOPEFULLY that is in the last, as we don’t know when this happened.

How are we "misreading" you? If "The whole corporation is rotten to the core" isn't a judgement, then what is it?

Yes I probably shouldn’t have said the WHOLE corporation is rotten to the core but it isn’t exactly coming up smelling of roses either

Actually in the UK it’s called freedom of expression - only free speech in USA I think.

Before we judge anybody we should wait to see IF they are charged. Then let our legal process begin.

Exactly 👍

Innocent until proven guilty and hopefully the individual concerned will be given a fair trial should it get to that stage
