George Hook to report hate letter to Gardaí

Rugby pundit and radio presenter George Hook has said an anonymous letter urging him to kill himself is “water off a duck’s back” but warned the sender he is going to hand it into gardaí.

The Newstalk presenter read the letter out on his radio programme yesterday afternoon, saying it had arrived through the post earlier in the day.

The letter read: “George nobody likes you, not even yourself. You are a failure as a person, bad businessman, brutal husband, an even worse father. You conned your friends in business and in life. On TV and radio you are just a whinger who likes to be awkward. The reality is you are a waste of a pregnancy. An aborted foetus would have had a better impact on the world than you.
