Saville libelled himself comprehensively enough in the programme he did with Louis Theroux, or so it seemed to me ...
Still, I don't think that should give him a pass and be regarded as a loveable old Grandad type figure while Jonathan King is thought of as a hideous pervert.
Granted, I think the types of music they championed might have something to do with their image too.

Which Radio One DJ has been shot dead? The standard puts King on the cover and hides this tantaliser inside. (I guess vicars boy Tim Westwood but I'll be back shortly after further examination).

But libel laws are expensive fuckers so I'm sure as hell not going to name him/her.

Police are investigating the death of a part-time DJ, Horrace Pinnock, who was shot in London in the early hours of Tuesday. Mr Pinnock, who called himself DJ Village, has deputised on two occasions for the BBC Radio 1 reggae DJ Chris Goldfinger.
It is understood he was killed during an altercation involving 10 men in Wembley, north west London.
A post mortem showed Mr Pinnock, 24, died from a single gunshot wound, after the incident.
Horrace Pinnock?

Ned: Momus built his "On Gatekeepers" column around Peel. It was one of his weakest columns: I thought his comparison of himself with Stephen Lawrence was incredibly tasteless and his implication that I can't be internationalist and forward-thinking because I have been to non-league football matches was spectacularly crass. Apart from that, it made some good points.
He should also answer to cultural crimes of promoting awful music and boring the nation stoopid with his dodgy taste in music.. American AOR/Hard Rock/Soft Metal/Poodle Metal pop - total t@sser!
Remember that useless Entertainment USA and then the even worse No Limits with banal corporate rock: Europe the Final Countdown, Stan Bush, Y & T, The Hooters, Richard Marx, Gufiari (Sp) or something like that), Nightranger, Motley Crue etc etc all the crap he promoted in the 80s. What was strange was (a) King's music choice was complete dross - music that suited the most dullest 30s/40s American (b) No Limits was marketed as a youth show on British TV and yet the music was not youth oriented and was irrelevant and non related to Britain. (C) on cultural grounds King should never have got the shows on in the first place @ BBC.
Inturn he used the "80s TV fame" to lure young boys for sordid activities.
In the 80s America had Casey Kasem - and in Britain we had by default Jonathan King - two useless runts that knew fuck all about music. If here was ever a magnet for crap taste in music J.King was it.
I hope there a few tough old skool punks in prison to make his prison life hell, the sick pedo and a corporate cack rock fan - deserves everything coming to him. It's pay back time.

(I realise no sane human would go to bed with a DJ who plays Ulver, but we are after all talking about preying on the weak and confused and easily led.)
Same goes for telly. There is someone high up on one of the newer channels who likes Thai vice holidays and his dates are so young they've never had the painters in. Allegedly!

Pedo activities = Horrible
Jonathan King's 80s Music Interests = Horrible
= therefore double repulsion IMHO
[Mark as your count yourself as an original Punk - your not telling me you welcomed the slick American rock as championed by King!]
Summary
BBC should not have been supporting the American commercial rock music played on Entertainment USA and No Limits - that King was presenter was irrelevant - it could have been anyone. [IMHO Jonathan King's- nature of his ego and OTT presention style would have been better suited to Commercial TV or taken into account his music interests then maybe he should have stayed in America and made programmes for the yanks]
and ofcourse no adult should indulge in pedo activities irrespective of music interests.
The only connection I made was that he used his TV music fame to exploit young kids.
Martian: I have hated J.King for longer than you have been alive (almost), but the argt that he shd be buttfucked the more and razored by "old skool" punk rockahs where Sex Offender B just gets to reminisce with them abt The Lurkers ("She's 13/I'm Hurtin'") strikes me as inkorrekt.

Indecent assault is legal in other Western European countries?!! I think you've overlooked the issue of consent.
― Trevor, Thursday, 22 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)
My initial reaction was along the lines of - yeah this is bad but v.hypocritical (Jerry Lee Lewis bad boy of rock special in this month's Mojo). Actually reading the details of the offences though this is standard nasty sex-beast territory - marching into woods and assaulting, getting boy drunk and assaulting while boy was vomiting etc. There's still room for the "what about rockers and teenage girls" argument but JK got a fair cop as far as I can tell.

below Age of Consent, notion of consent is formal (eg childs says "yes" => it makes no difference legally); however, cultural variation of said age DOES introduce strange random factor (though not i think in this case, which i have still not read up on much)

There was a pederast in my town who liked learning-disabled teenaged boys, because those boys were the easiest pickings. He would employ them in his shop and the parents would think he was doing them a massive favour, a leg up rather than a leg over. He was 'happily married' and high-profile in our neighbourhood. If you lived there for ages you *knew* to keep away, if you'd just moved to the area, you didn't. That man figured all of these angles into his procurement and was, as far as I'm concerned, a total predator.

Speaking of which am I the only one who finds the following lyric, well, a bit suspect:
Ya I can see that you're just fifteen years old But I don't want your I.D. Ya I can see that you're so far from home..... ...But I know you miss your mother You look so scared out of my man made bed

The police inquiry into King began in 1999 when a man who can be identified only as KM sent an email to the National Criminal Intelligence Service alleging that he had been abused by King almost 30 years before.
KM said King was part of a group of five men who preyed on teenagers at the Walton Hop, a disco and live venue in Walton-on-Thames.
Inquiries into the circle of men who targeted boys there are continuing. The UK is seeking to extradite one man, a former national radio personality, from the Czech Republic.

fascinated by pop nonce Jonathan King's wretched dinners pic.twitter.com/NHWwvNDlt5— Aidan James (@mcandidate) April 24, 2025
yippee, this is just what you need to cheer you up on a friday. A thread on the absolutely vile and unpalatable recipes of a top convicted nonce (that I wasn't even sure was still alive) and some screenshots of his current social media output (which seems to involve a lot of extremely dubious historical nonce denial).
― vodkaitamin effrtvescent (calzino), Friday, 25 April 2025 08:07 (one year ago)
he once put out a full-length musical film about how he was Not A Nonce, think it was called "Vile Pervert The Musical" - I remember* A lot of it hinged on things like "ah the boy said my front door was green but actually it was yellow" and fucking hell I can't remember the colour of my own front door and I've lived here for 7 years.* His case was undermined somewhat by a song he performed in character as Oscar Wilde called "There's Nothing Wrong With Buggering Boys"we should be careful though as he will likely turn up in this thread or at the very least be lurking here. Hi JK! Your smurfs parody wasn't as funny as the one by the Barron Knights!

lol I assumed these were prison meals, but it seems the guy is out in the community doing what he wants.
He released Earth to King in 2008. One of the new songs on the album, "The True Story of Harold Shipman" was about the serial killer Dr. Harold Shipman, in which King suggested that Shipman may have been a victim of the media.[136]
