Weekly news- Aled Jones denies 'inappropriate' behaviour



Aled Jones is a famous Welsh singer and presenter, he was in TV shows such as Songs of Praise, Daybreak, Escape to the Country and more with his fragile reputation. He is a 46 year old father of two and yet, he has been accused of "inappropriate messaging and contact".


Sexual harassment news has been a concurrent theme throughout the past few months. And Aled Jones has now be accused. He has apologised for any disturbances which the allegations may of caused, he is "deeply sorry". But Jones strongly denies all of the allegations to a certain state. He has been accused of inappropriate messages and behaviour to a woman, but he "apparently" accepted his poor behaviour but still denies sexual harassment or inappropriate contact.

I have chosen this piece of news to demonstrate how often men in the media sexually take advantage of woman, especially in recent news. Furthermore, this news could link to my course work/exam because it represents how men negatively view woman; as objects which they can just sexually abuse when they please.

In my opinion, i wouldn't be surprised if the accusations towards Aled Jones were correct. But at the same time, sexual harassment is unacceptable in any case, and if Jones lied, he should be charged or punished so that he and others understand the consequences of sexual harassment.
