King sent a message to Christopher A. Sinclair – Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Mattel, Inc. – Email Address that said:
Dear Mr Sinclair,
I'm a British national, living in the UK and am very bemused by the 'apparent furore' here in connection with Muslim script appearing in one of your shows: Fireman Sam. Those who complained really need to get a life.
What I find really irksome, living as I do in a democracy, that certain subjects such as Islam are regarded by some as sacrosanct, especially in the media and therefore, cannot be discussed, nonsense.
Some people may not like what I say, but I'll defend my right to say it. So don't worry yourselves, the kids will go on enjoying Fireman Sam and bigots can go to hell.
Wishing you continuing success.
Yours sincerely
King
