To think Dan Wootoon is an odious misogynist and celebs need to stop getting involved with him?

First he came after Caroline Flack

Then he practically wet himself with joy at the chance to destroy Holly Willoughby over her colleagues mistakes (because we all know when a man fucks up the nearest woman should be blamed)

Now he is criticising Harry for trying to protect his family - but guess who’s at fault it is for not keeping him in line - Meghan of course!

Why are Eamon Holmes and Carol McGriffin(?) giving this absolutely sexist lowlife the time of day?

DAN WOOTTON: Why won't Meghan tell Harry he's acting foolish?

DAN WOOTTON: The missteps of Prince Harry's kamikaze mission are spiralling out of control, destroying what little credibility the Sussexes had left.

Dead eyed little shit.
Have you seen social media and all the disclosures from ex? Shocking and court roomish.

I'm just wondering why it's not yet broken in MSM... considering it's trended for a day on twitter

Are people frightened of him? I know they can't necessarily name him but like Huw, couldn't they cover it at all? Or maybe people are still talking to lawyers about what they can and can't say yet

Is it wrong for me to think it weird that people use the word cunt when describing misogynists? :(

Also cunts are useful 🤣

I reckon he has dirt on people high up .

No, @queenMab99 was simply giving a statement of the facts.

newnamethanks · 14/07/2023 12:57

Given that the ex claims to have found an unauthorised, hidden, sex tape of a colleague - unknown to her prior to disclosure - I guess its safe to assume DW has collected the dirt on many. And nobody is quite sure what he knows. And what he can show. This is purely my own speculation and I have no evidence of anything untoward.

PerkingFaintly · 14/07/2023 12:59

Well no doubt his employer will conduct a thorough and transparent investigation of all such rumours, making detailed daily progress reports to the public whether he has actually done anything wrong or not.

It's in the public interest, after all.

And actually in this case, if the rumours are about fellow staff members (especially more junior ones), it's quite genuinely within the employer's remit.

By the sounds of things I would say a lot of people are frightened of him and biding their time, and also although he'll be known to every journo in the UK for the general public he doesn't have anywhere near the same high profile as Huw Edwards.

Your mixing up opinion with facts. What Part of "It's GB news, what do you expect? You have to be a dick head to get on there!" is a fact? I`ll make it easy for you a fact has to be provable and have at least some evidence to back it up.

So if you could provide some evidence that would be nice and to make it nice and simple for you, ill do the search for you! Just show me where I can find evidence that you have to be a dick head to get on their for all presenters and guests new and old (Jo Coxx sister included). 🙂

Crikeyalmighty · 14/07/2023 13:38

I hate to use the word schadenfreude but I am so hoping the twitter stuff is true

Endlesssummer2022 · 14/07/2023 13:53

He may have dirt on the current higher ups but the future ones will have been smart enough to not get too close to him. Lots of hangers on will have been taking quiet notes waiting for a big payday.

luckylavender · 14/07/2023 13:58

I just don't think enough people know who he is for this to become a scandal.

newnamethanks · 14/07/2023 14:06

@Superpinkflowerpower switch your tv on tuned to GB News. Still short of evidence? Then the problem lies with you.

Yet... surely? He himself definitely not the level of fame as the recent ones... but I think what he's allegedly been up to would be a massive scandal once MSM run it

Lots of people far more famous than him supposedly if true it's affected

So no evidence then? all opinion`s. No problem lies with me I see not issue with it, so if offends you the problem is obviously with yourself.

Any way have a nice day, I see no need to converse with someone else who is confusing opinions with fact and cannot handle alternative views, bye!

As opposed to the tolerant right, who support odious creatures like Wooton, and various others?

Interesting that you had to include Jo Cox's sister in your list, just to prove GB news isn't full of dick heads.🙃It's like you know they are😂

Is that seriously the best you can come up with? You had one chance to have a conversation with me and you blew it on a terrible reply. Have a good day 😁

I know DW as we worked on the same publication, although it was ages ago. He isn't a bad person. He's a showbiz journalist, that's his job. Separate the man from the job. He is paid to be a shock jock type reporter.

Yeah I don't think he's trending just for being a shock type reporter on Twitter

Alleged blackmail including sexual perhaps filmed with person unaware of being filmed- more along those lines

Ahh, so sad if true, he was very talented when we worked together. Although journalism is pretty toxic.

Separate the man from the job

Why should we? There are allegations of secret filming of people having sex, possibly for blackmail purposes. Perhaps it was to help him with his job?

Iwantcakeeveryday · 14/07/2023 16:29

I think given recent events, any media outlet would be treading carefully and waiting for actual evidence before reporting what a former partner said.
