EDL attempt to silence reporters

Britain:NUJ General Secretary Jeremy Dear has spoken out against threats to reporters by Islamophobic racists. Dear called for “tough and urgent action” against the EDL and other Islaophobic and racist groups after reporter , Marc Vallée, and video journalist, Jason N. Parkinson, were intimidated verbally and by email for their coverage of an EDL march last weekend.

Parkinson told the NUJ website :

"It is ironic the English Defence League claim they are protesting 'peacefully' against Muslim extremism. Then late Saturday night, after returning from covering the Leeds protest, I receive a threatening email from one of their Welsh and English division organisers entitled 'Fatwa'.
