alt_luciusIn follow-up to Miss Parkinson's emotional but well-conceived statement regarding this month's Londinarium, I would remind the wizards and witches of the press that she is not yet of age. Any requests for further comment should come through her legal counsel, to wit: Mr Aristotle Baddock.
I should also like to state that while I find no obvious inaccuracies in Mr Bobolis' account, the inclusion of such intimate details in such a bald manner indicate a desire to over-step the line of journalistic objectivity in favour of titillation. Nor is this the first time he has shown a taste for stories that skirt the sensational. It is perhaps fitting that his anniversary issue should contain the same kind of scurrilous content as his inaugural one, more suited to the tabloid than the gentrified periodical he claims to publish. But he and I have already discussed his liberties at length, as well as the duplicitous manner in which he avoided gaining my input.
Finally, it should go without saying that I shall be very displeased with anyone foolish enough to provoke further public commentary or any kind of spectacle concerning Miss Parkinson's past or present - including that accomplished by disturbing or dishonouring her father's memory. I trust you will all consider carefully your actions in that regard.
