Paul Williams: Investigative journalist and force for good or scumbag opportunist

I despise Paul Williams. This guy and his sensationalising of gang land crime in this country is, in my opinion, actually exacerbating the problem yet he goes on like he is some kind of hero of the people "exposing" these gangsters. All he is doing is giving them street credentials. If the guy seriously wanted to fight crime he should have joined the guards.

I'm all for investigative journalism but Paul Williams is simply preying on the dysfunction of society. He is doing what he is doing because it sells, which is why he recently moved to the "only newspaper who will expose there criminals :rolleyes:" the paper whose integrity and ethics every decent citizen should aspire to, The News of the World.

Someone told me he invented a nickname for some scum bag to make him sound more notorious. I can't back that up as I refuse to read the drivel he writes in his books but apparently the gangster testified he never heard that nick name in his life until our national crime fighting hero Paul Williams mentioned it in his book.

So what is your opinion of Paul Williams. I think he is almost as bad as the people he so loves to write about.
