Milo Yiannopoulos publisher insists book won't feature hate speech
Simon & Schuster boss writes to authors alarmed by the rightwing author’s profile, assuring them that the firm will not tolerate abusive writing
In what is being seen as a damage limitation exercise, the publisher of rightwing controversialist Milo Yiannopoulos has written to authors to reassure them that his forthcoming book Dangerous will not contain hate speech.
Acknowledging the level of opposition to the title, Carolyn Reidy, Simon & Schuster president and CEO, told authors: “I want to make it clear that we do not support or condone, nor will we publish, hate speech. Not from our authors. Not in our books. Not at our imprints. Not from our employees and not in our workplace.”
