Last year Women's Aid launched a hard-hitting campaign, developed by Grey London, featuring Atonement actress Keira Knightley shown suffering a shocking assault at the hands of her "partner". Zoo had a weekly circulation of 102,043 in the second half of 2009, a 29.9% year-on-year fall, according to the most recent ABC figures. I am worried that this does show an attitude that jokes about violence against women are fair game."Ĭondemnation for the actor and the magazine is now trending on Twitter.
But I would like him to explain that to a woman who is a victim of violence. "I can only assume that Dyer thought he was being ironic. Furthermore, the next government must tackle media messages that condone or tolerate violence against women as a priority."Ĭeri Goddard, chief executive of the Fawcett Society, said: "It is appalling that a writer thought this acceptable and that the editor let it through."

Around half of women experience domestic violence, sexual assault or stalking in their lifetime. Violence against women and girls is no joke but a dreadful reality for too many. Holly Dustin, Manager of the End Violence Against Women coalition said: "Danny Dyer's advice to a Zoo magazine reader to 'cut' his ex-girlfriend's face is truly stomach-churning. This is not the advice I would give any member of the public I do not condone violence against women." "This is totally out of order, I am totally devastated. A donation will be made to Women's Aid."ĭyer is reported by The Sun to be claiming that he was misquoted. "Zoo and Danny Dyer condemn any violence against women. Zoo editor, Tom Etherington, apologises unreservedly for any offence the response may have caused and has launched an internal enquiry to ensure lessons are learnt. The Bauer spokeswoman said: "Due to an extremely regrettable production error, an inappropriate and indefensible response to a letter has appeared in this week's issue. Of course, the other option is to cut your ex's face, and then no one will want her." Then, when some bird falls for you, you can turn the tables and break her heart. I'd suggest going out on a rampage with the boys, getting on the booze and smashing anything that moves.

The actor and TV presenter said in his Ask Danny column: "You've got nothing to worry about, son. A Bauer spokeswoman blamed the comment being published on a "regrettable production error" and said Zoo's editor, Tom Etherington, offered his "apologies unreservedly for any offence the response may have caused".
