Comments:Four Korean women accuse JMS leader Jeong Myeong-seok of rape

From Wikinews, the free news source you can write!

I suppose even wikipedia has its now faults in the way the report information, I dont even know who the jsm guy is and i am already suspicious of these facts. Anyways, i hope people can be more honest in there reports is all. I have had my share of slander for some stupid misleading facts and it sucks.

Readers may note the following significant points:
  • Per our neutrality policy, our article takes no position on whether he did what he was accused of.
  • The religious organization we're talking about is a splinter group off the Unification Church, commonly known as the Moonies.
  • A user has been spamming here with links apparently to a site of the splinter group. I've blocked them and removed the spam; as of this writing, it's all still visible in this talk page's edit history, though. (Highlights: initial pretense to be a third party, accusations of slander, claims that "major news companies themselves have retracted their publications and have apologized for wrongly defaming Jeong Myeong-seo"; then, when called out on association with the splinter group, pivoting to claim "democratic society" gives everyone the right to defend themselves when slandered, maintaining they were trust-worthy because they said so, and reposting links to their own site for their allegations about what "major news companies" had said.)
