Ban a Record it goes straight to number one!

God Save the Queen - The Sex Pistols

The video that has caused such harrassment to Dr Benbow is now the subject of Ed Silvermans Pharmalot page.

Apparently Ed has spoke with GlaxoSmithKline today.

He writes:

We contacted Glaxo and a spokeswoman wrote the drugmaker “accepts that the company and its products are subject to public debate. However, we cannot accept personal and baseless attacks on our employees.” In a conversation, she adds “the issue was the specific offensive reference to one Glaxo employee.” So is there a concerted effort to stifle blogs and the video? No, she says. Will Glaxo approach other sites to remove the video should it be posted. To her knowledge, she says, no such decision has been made.

So let me get this straight... because it is baffling me.

I create and upload a video to youtube.

Benbow did not like it so complained.

GSK's lawyers, Addleshaw Goddard write to a third party to let them know that Benbow was not happy and that I was breaking the law by using logos and photos that were the property of GlaxoSmithKline.

I make a statement and apology to Benbow on this blog.

I email Addleshaw Goddard and direct them to the statement/apology.

A reporter from the United States contacts GSK and they speak with him about this issue.

There has been no direct contact with either GSK or Addleshaw Goddard yet they both speak to third parties?

What kind of a show are they running here?

It will be interesting to see if GSK harrass other bloggers who are now running with the video, if not, then maybe I have a case here of being victimised.
