Child abuse article
Sir,—l would like to take issue with Alan Wilkinson (January 20) and his wild abandonment. To suggest that Professor Ney is talking nonsense is bad enough, but will he also include Dr H. F. Priest and Professor Streigman, who both agree that the material in question is right material in the wrong place? Nobody in their right mind can believe that our computers (I assume Mr Wilkinson means our brains) can be fed with material like this all day, at high speed, without coming to the least harm. I am sure that Mr Wilkinson must be pulling our legs. What he is in fact saying, is that the multimillions of dollars that advertisers spend on promoting their goods does not influence viewers. I would also be very keen to discuss or debate this issue with Mr Wilkinson, or others anywhere, any time, to enable the truth to be revealed.—Yours, etc., NEVILLE M. RUSH, Director, New. Zealand Integrity Centre, Christchurch. January 21, 1982.
