BBC happy to role out a wife beater for Sports content

Fucksake!

And of course, Boy George has been recently employed by the BBC despite his history of assault and false imprisonment.

So, it seems the BBC is quite happy to platform and support men with violent histories.

Paul Merson, wife beater, was part of the Strictly line up this year. It's not confined to TW.

Yes @Datun
Why is a man who's claimed that it's OK for 9 years olds to have sex with adults platformed by the BBC and allowed into schools?
Why is a man claiming to be a woman with a history of advocating for extreme porn promoting VAWG and who campaigns to reduce child safeguarding age limits, platformed by the media?
Why is a man claiming to be a woman, convicted of attempted murder who's been in prison for decades, sharing platforms with MPs and involved with young people as he campaigns to remove women's rights?
Why is the media not joining up the dots about the repeated child abuse scandals being exposed in organisations that go into schools while campaigning for the removal of the rights of women and girls to same sex spaces?

So many questions.

Depressingly the answers to many of them involve the media completely failing to exercise the due diligence and moral values that they exercise in so many other areas - just as seen in the platforming of Maloney.

Interesting, when you consider his treatment by BBC and Guardian to that of the Gio chap from Strictly, whose career lies in tatters. I am not saying the dancer was innocent but clearly wasn't part of the sacred cast. I wonder what the outcome would have been if the dancer had been a TW.

Gosh.

'I have said I don't want to campaign around gays because I don't think they will vote for me.
"I don't think they do a lot for society. I don't have a problem with gays, what I have a problem with is them openly flaunting their sexuality.
"I will go to Camden. I'm not a career politician - I'm not going to say one thing one day. I said it as an off the record remark.
"I'm more for traditional family values and family life. I'm anti same-sex marriages and I'm anti same-sex families.
"I don't think it's right for children to be brought up that way. I don't think two men can bring up a child.
"If you are homosexual, you are homosexual - just get on with your life and stop bitching about things."'

Maloney

Oh FFS the bloody BBC. All sins are washed away by the miracle of trans. Whiter than white.

If a man is strangling his wife and he says the only thing that stopped him killing her was his children coming in, why isn't he arrested for attempted murder?

Didn't someone try to whack Maloney years ago, or am I thinking of another boxing guy?

Before he became his true self, Kellie also made extremely homophobic remarks when he was a UKIP candidate in 2004

'...Gay Conservatives who demanded that he step down as UKIP's mayoral candidate.
'Frank Maloney is a dangerous extremist and should resign or be sacked as UKIP's candidate for London mayor," said chairman James Davenport.
"UKIP must back or sack their homophobic candidate.
BBC NEWS | UK | Politics | UKIP candidate sparks gay anger

and there were [unproven in court, in fairness] accusations about allegedly threatening behaviour towards a young boxer, Darren Sutherland, who took his own life.

But that was Frank, not Kellie, so all's well that ends well, eh?

I see that Imane Khélif chap is going pro, if he's looking for a manager...?

As @MrsOvertonsWindow says above, this is about ' trans' being a sacred caste, treated differently at the BBC. They usually remove footage of abusive men \ fathers from their online resources and presenting team, but this requirement is not followed for men who say they are women.

it was only when the couple's frightened daughters rushed into the room that the former boxing promoter realised what he was doing.

Child abuse as well. Because maybe that should give them pause when merely almost killing a woman by strangulation doesn't.

“Knock out blonde” 🙄

• Cliched
• Clearly untrue - if the play on words refers to his wig
• Grossly offensive - in light of his confessed attempt to kill his ex wife and assaults on others (colleagues?)

An abusive, violent and dangerous man and husband. Shame he is prosecuted for this now. It's not like he denies anything.

Oh, Frank Maloney, boxing: that's the guy? Don't follow boxing, but I recall the name. Had no idea about all of this.

Sorry, this is the radio programme:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cn5zdwd4lzxo

'legendary boxing manager Kellie Maloney.'

Not a single mention of Maloney's violent attacks on his ex wife and colleagues.

Here is a link, for anyone who wants to complain.

Oh, look, he was consistently violent. Not just his ex wife he strangled:

'“Anger would build up in me. It was more anger with myself and I’d take it out on people around me,” says Kellie. “I grabbed a couple of people in the office round the neck, pushed them up against the wall and threatened them.”'

www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/kellie-maloney-tried-strangle-wife-5920750

'Describing [his] behaviour at the time as 'like a madman possessed,' it was only when the couple's frightened daughters rushed into the room that the former boxing promoter realised what he was doing.
Kellie said: 'What brought me back to my senses was the sound of their frightened voices. If they hadn't come into the room at that point I dread to think what might have happened.'
After leaving the holiday home, Frank walked the streets of Portugal for hours, trying to gather his thoughts.

Although Kellie never got violent with Tracey again, [he] has confessed that [he] was a 'verbal bully' instead, as [he] attempted to battle [his] inner turmoil and pent-up feelings.'

(The Mail seem to have got a bit confused withthe pronouns, calling Maloney 'he' in the first para but 'she' in the fourth. I've fixed the error for them.)

So odd that in this cancel culture era the BBC & other media unquestioningly promote the careers of wife stranglers, extreme porn addicts, organisations with paedophile / porn scandals, men who speak positively about sex with children and those who closely ally with a host of other criminals including sex offenders & attempted murders.

It's almost as if there's a sacred caste who cannot be challenged 😡

Poor children!

Also: Fuck those who are lionising him.

Zero tolerance of male violence against Women and Girls.

Fuck this violent, misogynistic man to the far side of the solar system and back again. How dare he play for sympathy, the nasty wee bastard.

I hope his wife and daughters are doing okay.

Just Googled him and found another news article. He openly admits he could have killed her too...Said he doesn't know what the outcome would have been if his two young children hadn't walked in on him strangling their mother! Talks about the fear in her eyes. at he wasn't violent after but bullied her verbally. Oh and wouldn't you now it...none of this is his fault cos he was struggling with his identity!

Shows how domestic abuse and violence towards their partners is part and parcel of male dominance. But, some would say, Maloney is part of the most vulnerable demographic. 🙄
