Fair enough, but I think the original point still stands, the hypocrisy of the Sun is pretty clear for all to see.Originally Posted by PontBlue

Would those pre-2003 Sun photos be illegal under the updated law?
It's still whataboutery to imply equivalence when different laws were in place.
I don't know for sure but I think it is illegal to share or reprint those pre-2003 photos.
It's not looking very good for Person X at the BBC then if these allegations have any substance.
A celebrity (though not Royalty) funded by the establishment MSM BBC licence fee exploiting a teenager for their own gratification.
A teenage girl who may or may not have known what they were getting into taking explicit photographs of herself to fund a crack habit.
All chronicled by a newspaper loved by the masses in its time for semi-naked photos of teenage girls who may or may not have known what they were getting into.
Surely on past form only LoM can guide us out of this moral maze!
I think part of the 2003 act specifically targeted page 3 and it's ilk.
But it's a crime to take, make, share or keep an indecent photo or video of a child under 18.

You forgot to add that it was done legally at the time by professional models.
I said a moral maze not a legal one. Do try to keep up.
Just imagine the moral maze in the Victorian era, the outrage over a bare ankle would have been off the charts.

Shock horror allegedly another pervert at the BBC, mother reports to the SUN when she sees no action by the BBC after reporting it to them, CCMB, let's go after the paper and poster who brings it to attention and gives a pass to topic, Hide your kids away, I've just seen that #No.1 pervert is coming to meet Jug ears next week, that'll be an interesting conversation, they do have something in common.
Let’s have a list of all of those posters who are defending the BBC employee then because I’ve not seen any. I’ve seen people having a go at the pure hypocrisy of the Sun and at the person who started the thread using the word “pervert” and last time I looked had got into such a mess that he was looking as if he was trying to justify someone taking topless shots of a sixteen year old.
The Sun has significant form here.
For those who were around in the mid 1980’s will recall the scandal around Bill Wyman from the Stones and the teenager Mandy Smith. Bill meet her when she was 13 and he was 47. He later wrote in his autobiography “She took my breath away, she was a woman at thirteen". He pursued her for years and Mandy Smith reported that they had sex when she was 14.
The Sun and other media at the time covered this as a randy old man chasing a stunning young woman. There was no coverage about Bill being a possible paedophile (which was confirmed by Smith herself). This can’t be dismissed as ‘that was the times’ as it was still illegal then. She later married him at 18 but you cant ignore the possibility of grooming, which was magnified by the his world of super stardom. Her mother at the time appeared more interested in the riches and glamour than protecting her young daughter.
Whenever the Sun goes on a crusade like this they should be reminded how they profited from this episode and others like it
Nels, your previous contribution was #sound of freedom NCSWIC..
I have no idea what that means but obviously you thought it relevant to the thread. If the reports are correct then the person taking advantage of this teenager needs the punishment appropriate to their sins. However be under no illusion that this thread was triggered because the person works for the BBC rather than through care and consideration for the victim.
Delve into the world of censorship with our enlightened friends, the Alt right don't really believe in it, or think that much of regulation, let the people decide what's appropriate or not. Yet we are at a point where the Childrens act is banded about. The ***** would still have 8 year olds up Chimneys.
Is the #No. 1 pervert the former us president who answered the question "what do you have in common with your daughter?" with "sex"?
And has called his daughter "voluptuous " and "a piece of ass" and "if she wasn't my daughter I'd be dating her" and when she was 16 "Don’t you think my daughter’s hot? She’s hot, right?" and “You know who’s one of the great beauties of the world, according to everybody? And I helped create her. Ivanka." and “My daughter, Ivanka. She’s 6 feet tall, she’s got the best body. She made a lot money as a model—a tremendous amount.” and "Yeah, she's really something, and what a beauty, that one. If I weren't happily married and, ya know, her father . . ." and that he kisses her "with every chance I get”?
That's gotta be the one you're talking about.
I'd have thought they'd be visiting France not the UK if your quotes are correct.
Awful sadly paid by us the taxpayer so many atrrogrant overpaid people thinking thier beyond the law it goes back.a long way ..
Sell it
Why didn't mother go to the police?
The only answer I can think of is Money!
The offender is disgusting but the mother isn't much better, calculating at least.
It's good that some BBC presenters who have been innocently dragged into this are suing the twitter users who have incorrectly named them.
Endless.
