Adam Pickup: Disappeared

In the early hours of Saturday morning 17 year-old Adam Pickup disappeared.
His friends last saw him leaving the club night Fab Café after drinking on Canal Street.
This has been all over the national newspapers.
And the coverage in the British gay news media - which would have been useful when the police were conducting a suspected murder enquiry - was...
Zilch.
Did you not get a press release?

PS A recent exchange with a certain gay journalist - who I shall not name as it was a personal communication - trying to explain why they haven't covered this was more surreal than a Salvador Dali eggbox. x

  1. Why would the gay press speak about this - because its Manchester? Was he gay?

  2. Because the police were appealing for witnesses who'd seen him around the gay village.
    Thanks for asking.
