Denmark has a Jimmy Savile in its premier chorus
mainPressure is growing on Danish Radio to explain why it ignored persistent complaints of sexual abuse against minors by the conductor of its Girls Choir, the late Tage Mortensen.
The newspaper Politiken reports that DR director general Christian Nissen rejected a 1996 complaint about sexual abuse of minors as defamatory Tage Mortensen. Nissen now maintains to Politiken that he fired the former chief conductor in 2000, when the first complaints were made.
The BBC turned a blind eye to Jimmy Savile’s predations for decades. When they were proven, the DG had to resign.
Naw, it’s cool. We musician types are ok with sexual predators like James Levine and the like. It’s the tRumptards and the people who tweet things that we don’t agree with that we gotta get rid of. They’re the ones creating the “authentic” victims.
I’m sure I’m not alone in thinking that your prolific comments are neither clever nor funny. You must have a lot of free time to spend so much of it here.
Makes one a little uncomfortable, eh?
George Entwistle, the then BBC Director-General, did not resign over the Jimmy Savile scandal. He resigned as Director-General (on 10 November 2012) following controversy over a Newsnight report which falsely implicated Lord McAlpine in the North Wales child abuse scandal.
Yes, that’s right.
Was there really any need for his picture? We can’t forget what he was but don’t need reminding how he looked !!!!!
