Please look into the nature of psychic frauds and see if your psychic favourites are using tricks.
My own history with Sally has involved a bunch of copyright claims but the cow does not dare take me to court.

Sampling replies to Morgan's carefully worded statement posted on her Facebook Page, she tries to imply to readers (who knows cannot separate or read between the lines) that Mark made death threats, stalked & made Morgan fear for her safety diverting the crimes in question. Whilst their team are controlling which comments go to the light, not surprised to see the usual praise, support & mentality from all the One Show type viewers who would still support Morgan even if she revealed that her act is all an act (revealing common sense).
Many sceptics (or regular people who use common sense) go on about how they use warm & cold reading techniques. On occasions certainly but in my experiences they don't bother as they don't need to. Cold reading is effective enough for the believers. As long as 20% of their generalisations are on the right lines, that's proof enough for them. And yes during their lives believers will get a reading (interjected with reading their body language & other misses they quickly forget) where the "medium" is spot on, will reveal stuff they "couldn't possibly have known". This is just mathematics. It would be abnormal if mathematics didn't prevail eventually. After all we all eventually guess 4 numbers on Lotto, trip over, break an expensive object & have something "remarkable" that strands out every 5 years or so. Those "spot on" readings being "remarkable" because deep down even the believer (target, victim) knows it only happens once every 5 years. That should tell them something but it doesn't. Think how many times you did get 4 numbers on Lotto.
Whilst Morgan has effectively spread this disease ("mediumship") around to susceptible vulnerable groups for years so far she's managed to turn this & the publicity in her favour which is always the danger when certain sceptics aren't as controlled. Leafleting is just littering as nobody ever takes note (but he meant well & tried a different tact).
Nevertheless readers should share this link with gay advocacy groups as they will have legal knowledge & be able to take appropriate steps as well as "psychic mediumship" & paranormal groups for their information.
The truth is out there but the truth is always using your common sense to realise when you're being manipulated for someone else's gain. The government, mainstream media & "Sally Morgan Enterprises" all have an agenda.
An Enterprise is a business. A business is a competitive cutthroat entity out to make money using marketing & public relations. Marketing & public relations are visual tricks & slogans (such as Psychic Sally On The Road or Colin Fry's Voices From Heaven tours) & words to decisive (using scripts from PR advisors, spin doctors & solicitors).
The tricked & deceived are the believers who fall for it. The believers are the voters politicians put pressure on to give them the go ahead for wars etc. & people with the money they & enterprises are after.
I refer to these believers & people who follow trends as Clones. They are in effect the same person!
