Burglar Ex-Parliamentarian: Media Careless in My Case


Green Left ex-Parliamentarian Wijnand Duyvendak has accused the media of being very careless in the treatment of his case, leading to his resignation. Duyvendak said that, in the Volkskrant a columnist called him “the Dutch Gerry Adams of Sinn Fein.” The website Geenstijl, owned by the daily Telegraaf called him the “Karadzic of the low countries”. The Telegraaf itself printed a ridiculous story saying that he had lived in a building with other activists where sperm had been mixed to create top revolutionnaries The story also referred to Nazi Germany.
