They won’t want to care that no matter in house it was it’s out in the public domain .And it doesn’t matter if it was picked up from watching a dodgy stream .It’s out there now . Worst thing that will happen here is he won’t be on Hibs TV again and he won’t apologise.He’s a bitter auld junkie prick . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is as public as Hibs TV is. More so, actually, given it's free and Hibs TV isn't. Both are platforms targeted at a particular audience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an article about Welsh/ Hibs and while you mentioned the Morelos incident, which was completely relevant as that seemed to spark whatever bile Welsh was about to spout, the McGregor one would have diluted your point and detracted from the reasoning of your article. And kept the “Morelos is the only one in the wrong bandwagon rolling”. The dude mentioned the CO in his article and how she may now come out of hibernation, it would have been easy to fit mcgregors incident in at that point imo.

He's always skulking round ER for a free lunch He's obviously done what he needed to get that gig. I always thought he was a fanny at school, a bit older than me so didn't know him too well. But a good mate of mine says he's of very good mind and sound stock. He's still fucked it in my eyes with us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA1972 9,057 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 The height of unprofessional from Hibs Firstly why is an author notorious for being a complete idiot any time he’s given a public platform a pundit on a football match Calling Morelos a H** and actually getting giggles from the other pundit and the presenter The machete comment is vile and it’s not even the worst thing about this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerall 25,935 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Ofcom's legal position is quite simple. "Ofcom has wide-ranging powers across the television, radio, telecoms and postal sectors. It has a statutory duty to represent the interests of citizens and consumers by promoting competition and protecting the public from harmful or offensive material." It is not Ofcoms decision to determine the law however, this is done by the 2003 Communications Act. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_Act_2003 As you can see in the "Malicious Communications" section, one of the the main determinations of an offence is dependant on the size of the audience, but this is not defined clearly, although there are plenty of legal precedents against a variety of individuals. Basically, I'd say there was a risk even with a small audience, especially if in the public domain. . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
