Moz claims he was misquoted, parts were omitted and questions were changed

Just posted this on the main board.

Quote from The Sun:

"A spokesman for the singer said: "We are suing them (the NME) for defamation. They have not only misquoted Morrissey, they have omitted critical parts of the interview and distorted the tone of the piece, his responses and the questions he was asked in order to try and present an inflammatory case."

I hope Moz was on the ball enough to tape that second telephone interview. If the above is true this is a whole new ball game, if they have actually misquoted him and changed some of the questions, they are f***ed!

They are deep in it without misquotes.

I thought it seemed very clear they'd inserted new questions- it seemed to start with the comment that he sounded like a Tory. His response didn't seem to match that statement at all.

Holy crap - you're right, if he was, he's got them by the squeezy bits.

I find it interesting that Morrissey's lawyer is a "one namer" also - Russles.
