Think it’s time the Sun went the same way as News of the World

I Should’ve refreshed Loads of lawyery types on Twitter saying this could be their NotW moment. Could take The Sun down. Would be marvellous.

How can The Sun have possibly thought it was a good idea to go ahead with this when the lawyers told them it was all bollocks on Friday? They must be very confident they had enough to prove otherwise. I hope they've misjudged this.
It was also never about the Young Person, but just another avenue for The Sun to attack the BBC.

IIRC Page 3 was exploiting some sort of loophole in not being considered sexual imagery. Like how you can show pictures of naked children in ads for nappies or even textbooks about biology etc. Is that why they would have a little speech bubble giving their opinion on the top stories of the day? It was just a comment piece not a sexual one?

Also it makes the Culture Minister look even more of a twat if true.

Even if The Sun shuts down, whatever replaces it will make it look quaint by comparison.

Any celebrity that's been libeled as a result of this should go directly for The Sun in any legal action, on the basis that The Sun was in possession of information it was all false, could see the defamation taking place and allowed it to continue.

That was still in the era where women had to lean into casual sexism or risk get branded a killjoy feminist and blackballed from the industry, so you can’t really judge her for it. I watched a documentary about her and her life was full of shit like that. Her first husband was a right ugly bastard and still cheated on her. No not judging her at all. Judging people who told an eight year old she had a nice bum.

Also confused by the gender of the young person involved. Early reports said female, but since Rylan decided to preempt any claim against him, I’m guessing the gender is still in question? News articles seem keen to avoid specifying it.

I think it’s male, with lots of mentions if ‘she’ in reference to the lads mother.

In the Mirror.. The parents of the young person at the heart of the BBC presenter scandal say they stand by their allegations and question how their child can afford a lawyer, it's been reported.
I guess 35k doesn't go far these days.

The lawyers representing the 20 year old crackhead on the verge of death are apparently a big multinational, I can’t imagine they’d touch this with a barge pole unless it was watertight or they were getting paid incredible sums of money
