How many of it's own NUJ Guidelines has The South Wales Evening Post and it's Editor Spencer Feeney broken by remaining silent ?


With the South Wales Evening Post and it's editor Spencer Feeney seemingly admitting his/their part by their silence in aiding Neath Port Talbot Social Services to "illegally remove" or "kidnap" Linda's 12 year old daughter at gunpoint from her hospital bed in America to cover up for medical negligence in the UK.

I though it might be worth checking out the National Union of Journalist Website www.nuj.org.uk to see exactly what codes of conduct and guidelines our so called journalists are required to work to.

The result of the search was quite astounding.

By printing on the 12th and 13th of February 1998 the " concern for a missing child " article and their refusal to acknowledge that this article was indeed a fake and false attempt by Neath Port Talbot Social Services to erect a "smokescreen" for them to carry out their illegal deeds. It would seem that The South Wales Evening Post and it's editor Spencer Feeney have thrown away their own guidelines and moral obligations in order to accommodate the Police,Doctors and Social Services to carry out this crime and to allow this "miscarriage of justice and cover up" to continue. Shame on them.

Below is the NUJ's Code of Conduct.
.
 The NUJ's Code of Conduct has set out the main principles of British and Irish journalism since 1936. The code is part of the rules and all journalists joining the union must sign that they will strive to adhere to the it.
.
Members of the National Union of Journalists are expected to abide by the following professional principles.
.
A journalist.
.
1 - At all times upholds and defends the principle of media freedom, the right of freedom of expression and the right of the public to be informed.
.
2 - Strives to ensure that information disseminated is honestly conveyed, accurate and fair.
.
3 - Does her/his utmost to correct harmful inaccuracies.
.
4 - Differentiates between fact and opinion.
.
5 - Obtains material by honest, straightforward and open means, with the exception of investigations that are both overwhelmingly in the public interest and which involve evidence that cannot be obtained by straightforward means.
.
6 - Does nothing to intrude into anybody’s private life, grief or distress unless justified by overriding consideration of the public interest.
.
7 - Protects the identity of sources who supply information in confidence and material gathered in the course of her/his work.
.
8 - Resists threats or any other inducements to influence, distort or suppress information.
.
9 - Takes no unfair personal advantage of information gained in the course of her/his duties before the information is public knowledge.
.
10 - Produces no material likely to lead to hatred or discrimination on the grounds of a person’s age, gender, race, colour, creed, legal status, disability, marital status, or sexual orientation.
.
11 - Does not by way of statement, voice or appearance endorse by advertisement any commercial product or service save for the promotion of her/his own work or of the medium by which she/he is employed.
.
12 - Avoids plagiarism.
.
13 - The NUJ believes a journalist has the right to refuse an assignment or be identified as the author of editorial that would break the letter or spirit of the code. The NUJ will fully support any journalist disciplined for asserting her/his right to act according to the code.
.
Having read the above I can easily pinpoint several points where the " Code of Conduct " has not applied to the actions of the South Wales Evening Post or it's Editor over what has happened to Linda, her family and her daughter.
.
But for the South Wales Evening Post and it's Editor there is more bad news.
.
Below is the NUJ Public interest clause.
.
Problems over media coverage often hinge on the "public interest". The Code of conduct uses the concept as a yardstick to justify publication of sensitive material.This is the NUJ's definition,drawn up by the Ethics council.
.
The public interest includes.


  • Detecting or exposing crime or a serious misdemeanour.



  • Protecting public health and safety.



  • Preventing the public from being misled by some statement or action of an individual or organisation.



  • Exposing misuse of public funds or other forms of corruption by public bodies.



  • Revealing potential conflicts of interest by those in positions of power and influence.



  • Exposing corporate greed.



  • Exposing hypocritical behaviour by those holding high office.


  • There is a public interest in the freedom of expression itself.


  • In cases involving children, journalists must demonstrate an exceptional public interest to over-ride the normally paramount interests of the child.
    .
    Overall it is abundantly clear the the South Wales Evening Post and it's Editor have clearly ignored the guidelines laid down by the NUJ in the interest of fair and unbiased reporting.

    .
    The evidence that I have released is in the public interest and has been released under "Public Interest Law."
    .
    Out of courtesy I have once again emailed this article to Mr Feeney.
    .
    Please leave a polite comment below and let us know what your thoughts are on how the South Wales Evening Post and it's Editor have conducted themselves so far.

    Excellent article Kevin.

    "Preventing the public from being misled by some statement or action of an individual or organisation."

    The EP misled the public by placing adverts that N::aSHA was missing when Social Services knew where she was safe and with her family.

    Will the now print a retraction ?

    Doubt it.

    You should all read this story

    In it Spencer Feeney clearly states “I think it is unquestionably a matter of public interest that people should know the level of complaints that are being lodged against our hospitals.”

    Mr Feeney this is a similar case the root of this crime is medical negligence by Doctors and Hospitals.

    Why the double standards please.

    Dear Mr Feeney

    Good Morning to you.

    I would like to draw your attention to a recent article on www.cllrkevinedwards.blogspot.com regarding how many of your nuj guidelines that you have broken by not responding to this tragic and illegal cover up.

    As a former reader of your newspaper ( I stopped buying it a while ago ) as a result of your rather rude and unprofessional behaviour by not having the decency to respond to the legitimate questions posed by Councillor Edwards on behalf of the Lewis family.

    I hope that you will at least afford me the courtesy of a reply.

    May I draw your attention to the following article http://www.holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2011/news/editor-defends-revelations-on-health-complaints/ that was published in your newspaper regarding Medical Negligence in hospitals.

    In defence of this article you state “I think it is unquestionably a matter of public interest that people should know the level of complaints that are being lodged against our hospitals.”

    Mr Feeney this is a similar case the root of this crime is medical negligence by Doctors and Hospitals.

    The justice 4 Linda Lewis Campaign deserves to be brought into the public domain.

    It most definitely is in "the public interest."

    I look forward to your urgent reply.

    Regards

    Tony Veitch

    3 - Does her/his utmost to correct harmful inaccuracies.

    The missing child advert is inaccurate so then they have to apologies and put it right and it has been harmful to Linda and her family.

    No more need to be said.

    I met this SWEP editor by appointment after a solicitor representing my x-wife contacted Spencer Feeney over a article that appeared in the SWEP.
    Link: http://www.parents4protest.co.uk/hunger_strike_reunite.htm
    It became obvious during my meeting with Spencer Feeney that confidential information protected by Family law was discussed between my x-partners solicitors including medical reports. After the meeting and my parenting time (one week) with my kids was over and returned back to mum, all contact to my kids was mysteriously ended. I never gave up and I have now had residence of my children for over two years. Nothing surprises me in Linda case when this Common Purpose editor is involved. This Spencer Feeney needs a wakening from his corrupted sleep - perhaps a protest outside the SWEP office in Swansea - Wonder if such a protest would make the SWEP front page? NOT!

    Is it because they already knew where she was and was pefectly safe with her loving family ?

    Lord Justice Wall on appointment as President of Family Division said he wanted an open and transparent debate on the Family Courts. This blog/website is surely carrying out his wishes.

    However, his words in public differ from those he gives in court. He is willing to give orders to cover up when corruption between judges and others is at risk of coming out in the open.

    Remember how MP's wanted to keep expenses secret and debate on their terms - the only time there could be an open public debate was when the Telegraph started publishing - we the people who pay those expenses would never have known - this is the culture now among the elected and unelected.

    This case [and others] deserves public debate and the EP and other media should be leading the debate not covering up.

    Keep disclosing the evidence and if it gets sticky you are doing what LJ Wall said he wanted - open and public debate but not where he controls the agenda.

    I hope linda don't mind me saying the following:
    these are just some of the facts in this case.

    firstly dr Dewi Evans A peadiatrician at Singleton Hospital misdiagnosed Linda's daughter.
    (Read Councillor Edwards Article)

    illegal Operation was perforemed at Neath Hospital linda's daughter Healthy Apendix was removed.
    ( Read Councillor Edwards Article)

    If Dr Dewi Evans HAD NOT! misdiagnosed Linda's daughter.Operation at Neath would have never taken place.

    Letters written by Dr Dewi Evans prove he contacted every Hospital that the Child attended and also spoke to every doctor .Dr Dewi Evans seemed to have had preoccupation by following Linda's daughter every hospital.May I state all the hospitals were referals by the family's GP with the exception of one.


    I note Councillor Edwards has yet to print Dr Dewi Evans letters.the contents of his letters are so unprofessinal.

    GP was administrating huge dosages of Medication withouit any diagnoses.Don't forget his patient was a Child.(Sorry can't remember the family's GP name)
    ( Read Councillor Edwards Article)
    Linda and her Dad decided to take their daughter/Grandaughter to America for an independent diagnoses.I don't know or will never understand the reason for Social Services involvement.
    Knowing the family were in America this is when they panicked.I beleive the following actions were Premeditated.
    More to Follow The Evening Post involment

    Close Friend said...

    continue from my last Comment

    1. The Social Services knew where the Child was from the 29th January 1998.
    (Read councillor Keith Davies Letter)

    2. January 30th 1998, Nemours Clinic in America wrote she had received Medical Records and Court transcripts from the UK Note Date.

    3. South Wales Evening Post printed on the 12th and 13th February 1998, child Missing
    why print anything they knew that the Child was in America. The Public was given false information by the paper.
    (Read Councillor Kevin Edwards Article).

    Social Services took the Grandmother to court on the 16th of February 1998,the reason they gave for the court hearing is that the Child was Missing and the Grandmother had to disclose the whereabouts of her husband daughter and grandaughter or she would go to Prison Why?take Granmother to Court when they knew already the child was in America.

    (Read Councillor Keith Davies Letter)

    February 18th 1998, Linda's daughter was removed from a hospital bed in America and brought back to the UK on false Documents and False Passport.
    (Read Councillor Keith Davies Letter)


    On the Child's return to the United Kingdom read Dr Dewi Evans Letter,he wanted the Child admitted to Singleton hospital for two weeks under his Colleague.He advised the Child should not have any contact with the mother and her Grandparents, there should also be no telephone comunication with the child and family.

    If the Mother and Grandfather had committed any crime in taken their Daughter/Grandaughter out of the Country illegal, then surley thery would have been arrested and charged.

    It seems the main culprids in this case are Dr Dewi Evans the family's GP,Social Services, Foster Mother and the Solicitoracting fot the Child .This is only my opinion.

    I hope the Evening Post reads what I have said

    Evil beyond belief
    Gross Injustice.

    By refusing to act the Evening Post has declared itself impotent, useless and irrelevant as a newspaper.

    Just like the News of the World it should be closed down and the shabby cowardly retards who write for it and edit it should be shown the door never to work again.

    I have studied the newspaper industry for a few years and this must be the most obvious example of non action and misrepresentation that I have come across.

    It is a disgrace that they are now without part of this terrible cover up.

    Is Spencer Feeney being bought off ?

    The earlier testimony by one of their journalists Paul Lewis seems to add this as a possibility.

    I can and would ask all contributors to this site and supporters of Miss Lewis to treat the Evening Post as a hostile organisation and refuse to buy it's newspapers ever again.

    I will be forwarding these articles to the Northcliffe Group of Newspapers who own the newspaper as well as the Daily Mail to protest about what is happening here.

    In cases involving children, journalists must demonstrate an exceptional public interest to over-ride the normally paramount interests of the child.

    Having had the privelige of meeting Linda and her family I find it hard to believe 'anyone' could ever doubt that she is anything other than a loving mother and just a really nice person.
    Whereas 'all' the media I have dealt with and tried to report crimes to, that have been committed by Government and all official bodies that are supposed to be protecting our liberties, 'have all assisted the powers that be to cover these crimes up, its not just ridiculous its peverse. there is no such thing as a free press in this country. but what I have come to realise is; as long as it doesnt affect them, the people of this country veer away from the problem hoping that 'their safe' and kidding themselves 'it will all turn out for the best',LOL what a load of puddings. wake up UK and smell the coffee, disaster is knocking on 'your' door.

    I suppose they have to stay silent. If one of them cracks this whole dirty illegal and immoral act of deliberate persecution against the Lewis family and Na8*ah* Lewis will fall like a house of cards.

    Colin Preece was cracking and was given early retirement and protection from attending court even though he was issued with a subpoena.

    Conveniently away on a cruise paid for by who I wonder?

    This evil consortium like any other evil consortium throughout history will eventully be brought to it's knees and held to account by it's victims.

    I am proud to have been fighhting this case for many years and I will never give in and neither will the thousands of others who have pledged their backing worldwide.

    A neighbour of mine saw a poster in a window in Swansea went home and looked up your website.

    She then told me and we have both cancelled our home delivery from our newsagents.

    We will consider buying the paper again if they speak out.

    This really is an appalling and depressing story that needs to be brought to an end.

    Good Luck to you and your supporters.

    The Evening Post concentrates on Macdonalds, Hedges and missing dogs but ignores the corruption, deceit and perjury being commited by so called people in power on it's own doorstep.

    You may call me cynical if you want but Spencer Feeney is either thouroughly dishonest or is being paid by the state to keep quiet.

    No reputable newspaper or editor would ignore this story considering the evidence without a hidden agenda.

    What's going on here ?

    Nathan said...

    By not respoding or posting feeble excuses the likes of Hywel Francis and Spencer Feeney are doing the dirty work of the guilty like Dr Dewi Evans and Julie Reznicek.

    They hope to have one aim.

    To demoralise us , make us despair , give up and go away.

    They are fools.

    Every rebuff makes us stronger, much stronger.

    Some of us have been fighting this case for nearly 13 years and have still not given up.

    If it takes another 13 years well we shall do it.

    Adversity is strength and in it we grow stronger.

    Silence is weakeness and you get weaker.

    Your time gets shorter.

    The paper should be made accountable for printing things that are not true.

    Honest Lawyer said...

    Ok

    I have studied the evidence on the CD'S that you sent me.

    Legally it is perfectly clear that the South Wales Evening Post and it's Editor Spencer Feeney have acted in a premeditated manner by aiding and abetting in the illegal removal (kidnapping)of a minor from her families care while they were perfectly legally and correctly seeking proper medical advise for her in America.

    Grounds/smokescreen was implemented to make this illegal act look as legal as possible and would probably have remained undetected if good people working within the system had not forwarded the evidence onto Miss Lewis and her family.It is good to know that some people who were unwillingly dragged into this charade had a conscience.

    Your next step is to report the newspaper to the Press Complaints Commission and to the owners of The South Wales Evening Post the Northcliffe Group.

    Be aware that research has shown that Spencer Feeney is actually a Regional Representative on the PCC so it is essential that he has no input.

    Publish all emails that you send and be sure to request that Spencer Feeney is not allowed to participate in this investigation.

    No reply from either the Northcliffe Group or the PCC will confirm their guilt and so will a cover up.

    The evidence is conclusive and the newspaper is in deep,deep doo doo over this and legally has no out at all.

    Such a serious appeal as "Child Missing" MUST give an outcome that is satisfactory one way or the other.

    They did not do this.

    Next step is to take legal action directly against the South Wales Evening Post and Spencer Feeney.

    There is no "Time Limit" on your way forward.

    I will advise you what actions I recommend in due course.

    This is a classic example of a "wheel conspiracy" or a "chain or ladder conspiracy"?

    So many rotten eggs all in one basket South Wales.

    Studying the evidence last night the " Wheel " wins it.

    Dewi Evans the desperate, guilty culprit.

    Look forward to you putting his letters in the public domain as well as the back stabbing letters by Lyn Naylor.

    Lyn Naylor was supposed to be Linda's Solicitor bought to sell her client down the river.

    Illegal faxes to America to justify Dewi Evans illogical and quite frankly " barking mad " allegations and statement.

    All done behind Linda's back.

    Incidentally.

    Julie Reznicek and Lyn Naylor are well known on the Swansea " Lesbian Scene. " Without being homophobic which I am not, should they have ever been trusted to be involved in this case ?

    Obviously they have no idea what it is like to have a child of their own.

    It is beyond them.

    They have no shame.

    The Daily Mail exposed child kidnapping in an article yesterday.

    Good to see that the Northcliffe Group has one decent reporter.

    How many of the other Editorial Staff are behind this cover up in the Evening Post as well as Spencer Feeney.

    There must be a lot of them.

    Has Paul Lewis been silenced again ?

    It should be closed down the crime comitted by it's Editor in collusion with others and this includes members of his Editorial team is even worse that the NOW scandal.

    We are talking about a 12 year old girl here that Spencer Feeney allowed to be mentally and physically abused as well a a perfectly normal family subjected to 13 years of absolute hell.

    This man is the prime example of the "scum" that are in authority who use and abuse their positions without conscience.

    I wonder how much he was paid for his part in this conspiracy ?

    Offices of the Bristol Evening Post attacked.

    Interesting comment from Alan Fenwick the publisher who ststes “What is clear from this attack is that we are doing what a city newspaper should do and speaking for 99 per cent of the community."

    Take a lesson from This Spencer Feeney expose what has happened to the Lewis family.
