An article was published in The Guardian today about the campaign calling for Snoop Dogg’s visa to be revoked. Titled ‘White singers deserve the same scrutiny for sexism as Snoop Dogg‘,  it implied that Collective Shout’s motivation for the campaign was race, not misogyny, sexism or violence against women. The Guardian declined to publish Dr Caroline Norma’s response. So we did.

'Drunk at the bar' single endorses date rape

*trigger warning for survivors of sexual assault*

A number of Collective Shout supporters have contacted us about Brian McFadden’s new song ‘Drunk at the bar.’ News.com.au reported that many fans of McFaddens music have slammed the song as promoting date rape.

Lyrics from 'Drunk at the bar' include:

I like you just the way you are, drunk as s**t dancing at the bar

I can’t wait to get you home so I can do some damage

Jump in the backseat of my car...I can’t wait to get you home so I can take advantage

McFadden is apparently shocked 'at these ridiculous accusations’ that he would be promoting date rape.
