Publisher withdraws magazine following protests from Christian reader

By Jennani Durai

All unsold copies of this month's issue of FHM Singapore magazine will be pulled off stands islandwide, after two articles in it sparked the ire of Christians here for being insensitive.

In response to queries from The Straits Times, the magazine's senior editor, Mr David Fuhrmann-Lim, apologised on Friday for any offence caused.

He said the magazine will be pulled off shelves immediately and the process would be completed within two days. He also posted the apology on the magazine's Facebook page.

A spokesman for media regulator Media Development Authority (MDA) on Friday said it is investigating the men's lifestyle magazine 'for possible breach of content guidelines'.
