Sick pro rape pick-up artist Roosh V is unhappy with the coverage his views are getting – and has begun posting the personal details of journalists who criticise him.

The hate figure, who believes rape should be legal on private property and who has published 15 books widely described as ‘rape guides’, wants to see journalists who disagree with him targeted.

Which means he’ll probably be compiling the names of every media person on the planet.

He urged his followers – alarmingly he does have them – to gather photos, Facebook profiles and addresses ‘for possible future use’.


Meetups in Manchester, London, Leeds and Glasgow for his followers had to be cancelled after Roosh V – whose real name is Daryush Valizadeh – said he feared for their safety.

He heads an organisation called Return of Kings, which has been widely blasted.

Among the journalists listed by Valizadeh and his supporters is Emma Healey, 21, who wrote an article for The Tab Leeds.

She told the Mail: ‘It’s really quite scary – all I was doing was writing a news story. I definitely didn’t see this coming, but I received a message last night from someone in America letting me know that I was on this list.

‘It’s really odd because I am the only student journalist on there. I’m unpaid, yet I’m still a target.

‘I’ve spent a lot of today walking around on edge – but if they’re reacting like this, then it’s clear I’m doing the right thing.

‘They wouldn’t have reacted like this if it wasn’t a threat. It’s just a testament to the power of words.’

It’s not been a good week for Valizadeh. Not only did it emerge that he lives in his mother’s basement, but MPs mocked the size of his penis in the House of Commons.

Labour MP Chi Onwurah suggested he was ‘so insecure in his own masculinity’ that he felt the need to ‘augment the size of his… following’ – prompting giggles from around the Commons chamber.

Home Office minister Karen Bradley joined in, adding: ‘I join her in her comments about perhaps the reasons why this individual is doing what he is doing, ensuring he is getting publicity, in a way perhaps he needs for other reasons. I’ll say no more.’

Valizadeh has previously stated: ‘My default opinion of any girl I meet is worthless dirty wh**e until proven otherwise.’
