It's a good point that Paul Zenon makes about facebook friending a medium, as they can find out more about some people from their home page than a private detective ever could. Who needs cold reading and looking at body language when you've got someone's whole life story in words and pictures on facebook to build a fake reading from?

Caveat emptor.

Hi Alvittos, you are more than welcome to post your own thoughts here, rather than copying and pasting something I posted from 2011 :-)

Hmm Rarely does someone from the Mornington Peninsula have a Bulgarian IP address

Maybe they should Bulgar off?

This is unpleasant viewing and adds fuel to the fire:

Hm well on the one hand I certainly don't condone the threats and homophobic comments which are disgraceful, on the other I am wondering what reaction he expected? It's not like they claim to be religious or even tolerant. I don't understand his motivation for being provocative.

If he is making libellous comments I'd expect him to pay the price. If he has no means then it's very easy to say all sorts of things with no repercussions. If he is harassing someone then it wouldn't be surprising if her family reacted to that would it?

Turning up at an event like that with an audience who have paid to see Sally Morgan sounds like a vendetta to me.

The leaflet he claimed to be handing out reads like common sense advice for anyone attending such an event, and can be seen here:

I'd agree it is sensible advice. I can't see anything libellous in it. I don't know if he has said anything else in other places but on the face of it, I'd say it was good advice.

I would add that turning up like this frequently at the same person's shows and doing this type of thing might be construed as harassment at some point.

Hi Obi,

He has now been handing out the leaflets at demonstrations by other mediums. Their reaction has not been anything like that of the Morgan's I am pleased to say.

One of the biggest problems we have is the credulity of people visiting psychics and mediums. Handing out leaflets like that may help deal with this, teach people to be more discerning.

Hi Jim

Perhaps he has just been lucky. It does look like a campaign to me but I agree there is nothing I can see as objectionable in the leaflet itself.

It's also worth noting that the video is heavily edited and we have no way of knowing how accurate a representation it is of what happened.

This piece is interesting, clearly this video has turned more attention onto Sally http://hayleyisaghost.co.uk/fans-sally-morgan/
There is also this rather strange piece
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/womans-pain-celebrity-psychic-sally-4417037
Not impossible that a person in Spirit will appear when the friends of the one they want to communicate with are present but this just feels odd.

Well did anyone see this coming? Sally sacking her husband and son in law.

Good for her.
