Johnny Logan: Misogynist or Not?

Elizabeth Davidson, who’s standing in Dublin South West, made the comment after Logan stated in a Sunday Independent interview that a female journalist who’d given him a bad review deserved “a good kick up the gee”.
“Johnny Logan’s violent and crude statement is inconsistent with McDonald’s vision of itself as a family friendly organisation that supports charitable organisations,” Davidson fumes. “Violence against women is not acceptable in any shape or form, be it verbal or physical. I call on McDonald’s to remove him immediately from its advertising campaign and to make a substantial contribution to Woman’s Aid to indicate condemnation of this disgusting statement.”
Commenting from New York, Johnny Logan says: “It is always an indication of a party bankrupt of real ideas when they look to generate publicity from some off-handed, inoffensive, unintended remark. They have now empowered and reinforced a message that was never there. They should be ashamed of themselves. This is political correctness gone mad, when they have to pick on Johnny Logan. Who is this crazy guy, he deserves a kick up the gee! Ha ha ha!”
