I'm with Brian

by Whaleoil on February 11, 2011

Now all loyal readers will know that I think Brian Edwards is a pompous toss-pot. However Brian is a blogger and when bloggers are threatened by bully-boy mainstream media outlets, even thoroughly pink ones like The Sunday Star-Times, then the Bloggers Union members, me included must put aside our prejudices and support our members.

David “I’m friends with Len” Kemys, needs a good hard lesson in what  NFWAB means.

On Brian Edwards part he has obviously been watching this blog for tips on how to deal with flea lawyers. You publish their threats and bring everything into the open, cleansing sunlight.

As Cactus Kate notes on flea lawyers:

As for Edwards, tell them to fuck off. Real lawyers don’t send threats by emails. They serve papers.

If the intent of the Slowly Sinking Tabloid was to hopefully bury the story then I refer them and their idiot editor to my post about the Streisand Effect. Just inc ase they missed it here is the idiot’s guide to what happens when you try to shut bloggers down.

David “I’m friends with Len” Kemys, the Slowly Sinking Tabloid and Izard Weston can make all this go away by simply publishing jonathan Marshall’s recordings or notes. It isn’t hard to do, and it will shut everyone up.

Right now though the advantage is certainly with Amanda Hotchin and Brian Edwards.

Meanwhile the advice Never F*ck With A Blogger holds true, and in solidarity with a fellow union member we now stand strong against the bully-boy tactics of the Sunday Star-Times, together with Brian Edwards.

    Oh dear what a complete mess the Sunday Star Times has gone and got itself in.

    Why o why didn’t they just publish the tape Jonathan Marshall had… or didn’t he have one…

    Marshall lives in the gutter with the low-lifes of society – thats how he comes up with most of his dribble.
    While the SST fires most of its decent reporters and commentator, this turd keeps firing out un-substatiated and factually incorrect stories all in the name of gossip and sensationalism – I’m seriously surprised no one has bothered to take out a contract on the queer little wankers head.
    I have no sympathy for the Hotchins – so why doesn’t SST put up and shut up? Its simple really – they cannot substantiate Marshals story because he is famous for making up most of what he writes.
    Maybe his boyfriend was too busy giving him one whilst he was busy throwing the Colombian Marching Powder up his nose and he knew he had to make up a story to justify his island jaunt.
    Release the tape Marshall – and prove yourself.
    The editor of the SST obviously has rocks in his head – or his he busy taking one from Marshall too?

      For someone so upset with people making stuff up you seem to be making an awful lot up yourself.

        Well Whale – for someone who is so outspoken of your hatred of gay and homosexual people – you always seem to be ready to give Marshall’s (a well known fudge-packer and recreational drug taker) rantings immediate credence without doing any “journalistic research” yourself.
        Hypocritical much?

          I have no hatred for gay and homosexual people, those are your words, you also use fudge-packer which clearly shows that you are an intolerant bigot. For lying and defaming people on my blog you now have a lifetime ban. No fuck off back to what ever rock you crawled from under.

    Johnathon Marshall did a very incisive story in 2005 on Lisa Phelan, P, and the Head Hunters connection, he’s ok in my books.
