Over the next few minutes, the LBC presenter took apart the Smith Report's findings on BBC bosses and how much they were to blame for Jimmy Savile's decades of abuse.
"I'm not going to call in question Dame Janet Smith's integrity, but I do call into question her main conclusion...that the BBC has no corporate culpability for what Jimmy Savile got away with."
Iain railed against those findings: "Not a single BBC manager had the balls to confront the issue head on. They can't be held responsible because many of them are now dead."”
The saddest thing about all this is that it's not just the BBC...it's them today to be bashed but people in the NHS could have exposed him as well and others.
I work with children and it's very clear that abuse still goes on today....hope you all read about what happened in Rotherham...just terrible.
Also it brings up other issues like the death of jill dando who apparantly knew of JS...why was she not listened to with her evidence....
No as ever this is just apart of things...most will never come out.
I have also been involved in the running industry for over 35 years...it was an open secret that he never ran the entire race of all those marathons towards the end of his running career but as a fund raiser his involvement was so huge. It was more important that he was there not if he actually ran the whole thing.
Just another example of the "lance Armstrong" excuse.
