"The BBC has been blasted for not cutting off a paedophile who rang in a phone-in to say how his eight year old daughters enjoyed being raped by him. He rang the radio show from prison and spent nearly five minutes on air discussing his sex crimes. The caller even spoke about how he had started to make videos of child sex on the late night BBC phone-in show."
*Listeners were horrified to hear the man repeat graphic details of his alleged crimes and argue DVDs of ‘child sex’ should be supplied to adults to prevent them abusing children.
The paedophile said: 'Both my daughters enjoyed sex with me when they were eight years of age, with full consent and knowledge of their mother.
'I've now progressed to making DVDs of child sex and I argue very strongly that I'm doing a public service.
'There are a lot of professional people paying good money to watch a DVD of children having sex.' "

BBC has a horrible record of how they've dealt with pedophilia, and obviously this doesn't help. HOWEVER... the industry likes ratings and possibly his producers were egging him on, so I wouldn't personally blame the host. I also wouldn't go immediately to "BBC is normalizing pedophilia" especially since they apologized for it. If they were pushing pedophilia, they would have come out with some BS statement about how everyone's views were important, etc.
Alternatively, it's not unusual to be shocked in a situation like that and freeze up (hosts/producer/whoever was responsible for letting this continue), It's like when I was a teller in a bank robbery - the reality did not match how I thought I'd deal with the situation in my head.
P.S. - Dangerous fan? :)

Call it whatever the fuck you want. I'll keep calling it an attempt to normalize pedophilia, thanks.
