Apology

Dear Steve Dixon,

I did not mean to offend you personally. You expressed an opinion about a TV program which I did not agree with, and so did I. You also made personal comments about a presenter on that show, which were not nice and were rather offensive.
I still stand by my opinion of Sky News, as does your one supporter "Not wrong for long". I have not listed my supporters yet, as they are too many.
History has documented the number of times that Sky News over report incidents, only to down grade the, later. Almost scaremongering at times.
You should not have resorted to personal abuse that has caused offence, which could be seen in violation of UK hate laws.
I am awaiting a response from Sky News, which I will post here when they deal with it. I will also happily post any comments that you may have to make.
Fundamentally, you said that "If you don´t like it don´t watch", but had you have applied that to your original view of Loose Women, which is nominated once more for Best Daytime TV Show, then this difference of opinion would never have happened.
Like it or not, your role as a journalist MUST be impartial, and in that, you failed.
You were totally out of order to make the personal remarks towards me that you did, and that is why I am pursuing this matter. There are hate laws in place in the UK, which cover such statements that you made. How dare you make such assumptions of me, especially in such an independent and public way.
I am yet to decide on my final course of action, dependant on the response I get from you personally and your employers.
I reiterate that I made NO personal comments about you, but you made personal and defamatory statements towards me.
I am sending you a link to this page on Twitter, but if you have blocked me, then you will not see it, so I will also send it to a number of other sources to try to ensure that you get it.
Then, you can consider your actions, and an apology as public as your deformation.

Regards,

Mark A Nolan
