RENEGADE RADIO: Soccer Sin Scandal Special
Combining our passions for football and crime, we take a deep dive look into all the recent sexual abuse and assault scandals surrounding the English Premier League and the likes of Benjamin Mendy, Gylfi Sigurdsson, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ryan Giggs. While former footballer, Gordon Woods, joins us to discuss his experiences fighting for justice as a survivor of child sexual abuse at the notorious Celtic Boys club, a youth feeder team associated with football giants Glasgow Celtic, and a haven for an organised paedophile ring for decades. With your co-hosts Serkan Ozturk and Gary Johnston.
FRAUD
IN THEIR OWN WORDS! Evo Media owners admit they spent almost $500k with rorted employees hoping company “burns in hell”
EXCLUSIVE INVESTIGATION – PART FOUR: It’s the sensational and quite frankly horrifying media and community corruption scandal that simply won’t go away and has now led to death threats being made against True Crime News Weekly by a former senior employee of the AIDS Council of NSW (ACON) which also implicates the organisation’s CEO.
MEDIA & POLITICS
THE FAR RIGHT FEMBOT FILES! Leaked Border Force notes raise more questions about what the f*ck Lauren Southern is doing in Australia & her supposed announcement “quitting” White Supremacy
EXCLUSIVE: Just how exactly did Lauren Southern – the far-right White Supremacist darling and Sky News ‘media celebrity’ – successfully get past Border Force to gain entry from Canada to Australia last year despite a personal history full of extremist racist rhetoric used to divide communities and stoke violence? Tom Tanuki with this investigation.
I wonder if Ms Ford has any idea what it’s like to tell the truth.
Sounds like she made a mistake. If she loses the case she will pay a price. I don’t see the need to pile on her. She is relentlessly trolled and threatened by men who can’t handle any kind of criticism.
She’s a shocker Stuart, who from what I’ve seen on her twitter page, gives out much more than she receives. I have nothing against feminists, more power to them for waging the war for equality, but C. Ford just shows the ugly side of feminism, and undoes the good work done by the majority of feminists.
You may not agree with her opinions but she has the right to say them without graphic threats of violence against her which she receives pretty much constantly. You only need to see some of the sick people on-line telling her to put a gun in her mouth and making sure she gets trolled and called a paedophile which actually harms people who are trying to uncover real paedophilia. The only reason so-called more reasonable feminists are able to exist is because most of the more extreme abuse is directed at people like Clementine. If people don’t agree with her views, fight her on that, not her personally.
A complicated situation.
First, if Ms. Ford had apologised reasonably promptly, it would have stopped the defamation case.
Just as we should perhaps not “pile on” her, it seems to me she was “piling on” Mr. Butler. Mr. Butler may have made mistakes worth recognising. At the same time, I can see his comments about Eurydice Dixon as being a genuine attempt to recognise the worth of a friend who has passed away, who has been murdered. It does seem problematic, to me, of Ms. Ford reading Mr. Butler’s mind and putting out the most negative interpretation possible.
Second, Ms. Ford has been unfairly attacked and trolled. That is sad it happened. It is sad when it happens to anyone. I’m not sure, however, how far that should go towards forgiving her own behaviour.
Third, I can imagine past targets of Ms. Ford’s analysis claiming “this is not news”, and I’m sure she would have maintained her position. I think it is problematic for her to claim something is not news – it would never have been for the people she appraised to decide this. It is something for others to decide – not her – whether that it is fair or unfair. I know I’ve been subject to unfair media scrutiny in the past, and if you’ve been the recipient of it, you can but wonder at any journalist resenting it.
I had no idea who Butler was until I saw him posting creepy and dubious comments on Bettina Arndt’s page. That is why I was shocked when he attached himself to Dixon’s murder. He obviously hasn’t done too well to make a name for himself as a comedian.
Dixon’s father seems to take Butler’s feelings as genuine:

I would be curious to know more about Butler’s comments on Bettina Arndt’s page.
She inherited her idiocy from her mom (Cybill Shepherd).
I think we’re talking about different Clementine Fords – one in Australia, one in the US:

OK, thank you for the correction!
Thank you!
It seems a bit rich for a comedian who pushes people’s buttons to launch a defamation case against someone else for taking things too far.
Almost seems like he actually is trying to cash in…
