Mister M 1,608 #1 Posted May 4, 2017 Kelvin Mackenzie, newspaper columnist and ex editor, just cant help himself. In an interview with the New York Times he said: "I think the fake news headline that would give this country the most joy would be: ‘Jeremy Corbyn knifed to death by an asylum seeker’" The interviewer then said: She wrote: “The next morning, I got a text message from Mr MacKenzie: “Hi Katrin, Can you change that perfect headline from ‘Jeremy Corbyn knifed to death by asylum seeker’ to ‘Jeremy Corbyn defrauded by asylum seeker.’ In the light of Jo Cox murder mine is in tol (sic) poor taste.” Given that some MPs are complaining about getting death threats from deranged members of the public (e.g. Anna Soubry), who are worried that what happened to Jo Cox, will happen to them - should McKenzie get his job back as a columnist for the Sun?

Mister M 1,608 #7 Posted May 4, 2017 ............. ---------- Post added 04-05-2017 at 13:10 ---------- And some people have no sense of humour. I wonder if he would think it was funny if someone said the same about him??? Now let's see - Alex Thompson from Channel 4 news decided to dish out to McKenzie, what McKenzie and his crew have been dishing out to others for decades. Let's see how he responded: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Guest sibon #12 Posted May 4, 2017 Free speech, it was a joke, no more no less. Angel1. Indeed, he's free to say stuff like this, or his wonderful monkey comment if he likes. I'm just as free to consider him to be a monumental dick who isn't worth listening to. They'll sack him soon. Sacked from the Sun, that would be humiliating.
