Wootton, 40, said: “As a journalist, I feel uncomfortable being the story but I’ve always promised you that this show has no spin and no bias and no censorship so I owe it to you to address this.”
He added: “I, like all fallible human beings, have made errors of judgment in the past but the criminal allegations being made against me are simply untrue.
