I just came across a petition against Jade Goody’s continued support in Heat Magazine, I have yet to add my signature, but it seems that quite a few of the British public already have.

The petition states:

A petition against ‘Heat Magazine’s’ continued support and endorsement of self confessed ‘racist bully’ Jade Goody, who victimised Shilpa Shetty in this year’s edition of Celebrity Big Brother.

By continuing to support and promote Ms Goody, Heat Magazine is sending out an appalling message to young people that they can racially victimise others and continue to have a prosperous, media-limelit career. Ms Goody’s career solely grew from the promotion and publication of such magazines as Heat.

A signature to this petition is an affirmation of agreement that self confessed racist bullies should not be seen to prosper from their appalling conduct, as Jade Goody is through the continued promotion and support of Heat Magazine.

We, the undersigned, call on Heat Magazine to send out the right message to young people in this country and cease the continued support and promotion of self-confessed racist bully Jade Goody.

If you agree that magazines and tabloids shouldn’t be rewarding Jade and Co for their appalling behaviour, make sure to add your name to the list.
