Wirral should not be inviting Tyson
1:49pm Tuesday 11th September 2012 in Letters
WHY on earth is the Wirral Globe giving Mike Tyson any sort of coverage?
This man is a convicted rapist and should not be allowed to work alongside children, regardless of who he is.
Tyson should be signing the sex offenders’ register and not autographs.
The Wirral Globe should hang their heads in shame. Would you give him this coverage if he'd raped a member of your family?
I will be making a complaint about this visit happening, to the child protection agency and Wirral Council, to check if a convicted rapist is allowed to work with children.
This story is out of order and you should remove it if you have any morals.
R Taylor, Birkenhead.

As much as I agree with you on the Mike Tyson issue, the Globe has a responsibility to report any news, as a news paper they are not promoting him just reporting on a story.At least now more people are aware of his intended visit
