PERVERT KING IN HITLER RANT

(Please add the clause you believe to have been breached)

1) ACCURACY

The item was a NEWS story stating that I "accused society of demonising paedophiles". This is arrant nonsense, as can be seen from the lyrics to the song and video referred to in the item.

If this had been a review they would have had every right to express their qualified opinion. But since it was a news story on Page 16, it clearly breaches the accuracy clause. It is WRONG and was either caused by stupidity or malicious intent.

The lyric - as enclosed - is about Satan proclaiming that, by destroying affection, he will destroy the human race.

At no point does it state or imply that society demonises paedophiles.

Conjecture has clearly been stated as fact by the paper.

Given my history with the NEWS OF THE WORLD, this is a clear attempt to damage sales of my music and possibly to provoke damage to myself. It is precisely the kind of journalism that needs to be censored under the code.
