'Jesus beats Superman'
Self-styled 'comedy terrorist' Aaron Barschak told the Jewish News this week that “Jesus always beats Superman” after escaping a conviction for harassment.
Barschak was arrested in November 2006 after brandishing a pornographic magazine at Michael Jackson outside the Hempel Hotel in Craven Hill, Paddington, and allegedly shouting “Are you here for the Children in Need week, Michael?”

Oliver told Westminster Magistrates’ Court yesterday: “I was becoming quite annoyed by it all. In the area, there were young children, as young as three or four, who I had spoken to earlier.”
He later said that he had spoken to Jackson on the phone, had stayed at Neverland and made jackets for him.
But District Judge Daphne Wickham ruled that Oliver’s testimony was “not believable” and was only angry his hero Michael Jackson had been upstaged while in the country for the MTV Europe awards.
Barschak described it as a “victory for dark satire”.
