CALL FOR BOYCOTT OF SCOTTISH DAILY RECORD AND MIRROR GROUP NEWSPAPERS (12)

Smartarse's profile

Posted by Smartarse on Fri 9 Mar 07, 4:14 PM to Smartarse's blog.

The Scottish Daily Record has published personal details and pictures of a member of IC forcing her to lose her employment and status in her home community. Why? Apparently because she committed the heinous crime of working as a shop assistant for a charity while being a member of IC and posting here.

This is both a gross invasion of privacy and victimisation of an innocent person.

I call on all right thinking people to boycott this publication - the Scottish Daily Record - and the organisation behind them - Mirror Group Newspapers.

I urge you not to buy their papers. If you have dealings with them, advertise with them, supply information to them, work as contractors for them, or indeed are employed by them. I urge you to cut your links and not to support their evil trade in filth mongering.

This could happen to you. Make the newspaper realise that you will not stand for invasion of privacy or the destruction of innocent people's lives simply because they are curious about kink.

If you wish to file a protest about the conduct of the paper

File a complaint with the press complaints commission

The Daily Record's editor can be contacted by e-mail: t.hamilton@dailyrecord.co.uk.

How absolutely dreadful - I just read the story. It makes her sound like some sort of criminal, referring to her "double life".

I will certainly be making a complaint.

It's a fact of life that sex sells and people love a scandal.

It's also a given that people find what we do to be amusing/shocking/disgusting/newsworthy (delete as appropriate)

It's a truly appauling thing that's happened to V, but I'd be more bothered in finding out who tipped off the press, rather than trying to boycott a newspaper.

If you hate a man, walk a mile in his shoes. Then you'll be a mile away and have his shoes.

The relevant clauses of the press code which have been breached are 3 and 4, privacy and harrassment.

All right thinking people do not read these papers in the first place. I think there's mileage in writing a well thought out response to the editor. However, I don't think they will ever financially notice a boycott.

I doubt it would bother them, as they have written a followup today - complete with details yet again and unjustfied accusations.

Bastards!
