Peter Katsis: Last News

This comes after a statement was posted on the official Morrissey Facebook page after the episode aired on Sunday.During this, the series was branded as “hurtful” and “racist” as well as being slammed for its portrayal.This was later confirmed to have been written by Morrissey’s manager Peter Katsis.This read: “When a show stoops so low to use harshly hateful tactics like showing the Morrissey character with his belly hanging out of his shirt (when he has never looked like that at any point in his career) makes you wonder who the real hurtful, racist group is here.“Even worse - calling the Morrissey character out for being a racist, without pointing out any specific instances, offers nothing.

Morrissey was apparently quite upset over the parody of him on The Simpsons over the weekend.

The Simpsons recently struck a chord with former Smiths frontman Morrissey, whose manager Peter Katsis chewed out the long-running Fox animation show for “trying to capitalize on cheap controversy and expounding on vicious rumors.”
