Exposed...and not liking it

[bone]

Hello all, this is my first post..thanks for the chance to contribute

I was given a link by a colleague that was most enlightening, I expect most of you have already seen it , but If I may for those that haven't I would like to post it:



This shows the Most Haunted presenters discussing Derek Accorah and you distinctly hear Yyvette calling the possesions and ultimately Derek a fake.

I did bring this up on the Living TV Haunted forum along with a request for an explanation as to why programmes such as this do not show a " This is for entertainment purposes only" warning before these sham psychic type shows to protect the more vulnerable members of our society..that posted lasted for a good 3 seconds...

I thought my question was fairly reasonable,surely those that produce these programmes have a responsibility to protect those that actually are inclined to think these shows are based on reality?

Hoping this post will last longer.

Hehehe, you aint gonna get banned on here mate, trust me!
As for that Youtube link, that is my post lol

The reason why they dont use the entertainment banner on MH is due to a clever loophole in the law.

Also OFCOM ruled that MH was so obviously entertainemnt and NOT a serious investigation, that it didnt need one.

Basically only idiots think it is real

Thanks for the reply! so you are the one responsible for the YouTube posting! I raise a glass to you sir!

Can I ask how that great bit of video came to be leaked?

And IMHO these programmes really need to be exposed and ridiculed offically, if its entertainment then *say so*, I think the way these programmes and people who are connected to them take advantage of the vulnerable to make a fast buck or increase TV ratings is immoral and just plain odious.

Its nice to know that free speech and the opinions of the rational has a place here.

I feel at home already

Your welcome

It wasnt leaked, someone with some clever satellite equipment picked it up during a rehersal.

ALL clips you see on the net of this fashion have been gathered that way despite what some people claim

I totally agree, and that is one of the reasns this site exists to help expose these tv shows

As the "colleague" who gave him the youtube link in the first place I would like to formally apologise for him in advance *kidding, he's a good bloke*

It all started so innocently with me looking for the "Mary loves Dick" clip (Don't ask why)...

[plumbduff]

Welcome to the Mad House Bone ... I imagine you have a lot of reading and catching up to do about the MH Crew and the Antix (pardon the pun) they get up to.

ANTIX ... Oh the Irony

Time for a thread hijack

Have any of you seen this site?: www.rationalresponders.com/

I found a great radio interview with Richard Dawkins who I think is absolutely brilliant and well worth checking out ( see the Shows section on that site)

Welcome to BP Bone - you're amongst friends - but be wary of having a go at Mediums. Some of them on this forum are very defensive about their craft!

Thanks Mesmo, hmm an unusual use of the word "craft" there...

"Craft: . Skill in doing or making something, as in the arts; proficiency. See Synonyms at art.
2. Skill in evasion or deception; guile.
3.
a. An occupation or trade requiring manual dexterity or skilled artistry.
b. The membership of such an occupation or trade; guild.
4. pl. craft A boat, ship, or aircraft.
tr.v. craft·ed, craft·ing, crafts
1. To make by hand.
2. Usage Problem To make or construct (something) in a manner suggesting great care or ingenuity."

The use of the word craft would suggest that a tangable product is created as a result I wouldnt call anything performed by fraudsters in this fashion as "craft", the only way I can connect the words "medium" and "craft" could possibly be the reference to a "skill in deception"...

I can almost see the pins being inserted into the voodoo doll as I type..

[lowrider]

Ok Bone dear boy,i am a medium and not the love and light type.
I don't do voodoo either.
Since i didn't use the word craft either i suppose i cannot comment on that.
I suppose i should just leave you to sceptics to continue your love fest.
Unless you have something tangible to discuss other then an attempt at being funny and or sarcstic.
