Australian ABC Reporters Told Not to Use the Term Pedophile to Describe Child Sex Abusers… Because ‘Not All Pedophiles Molest Children’
By Cassandra Fairbanks, March 7, 2021
Reporters at Australia’s ABC Tasmania have been told not to use the term pedophile to describe child predators because “not all pedophiles abuse children.”
In a leaked email to the staff, a senior producer for the network said that using the term to describe people who prey on children could be “discouraging” non-offending pedophiles from seeking help.
“We should avoid [the term pedophile], unless we know he had a clinical diagnosis of paedophilia & instead use serial sexual offender / predator, or a sexual abuser of children and young people,” the producer warned.
