Russell Brand v The Sun
Discussion
Firstly it doesn't matter what you think about Brand - this is more about the press spouting bks.
So Brand rents and expensive home. The landlords apparently are tax avoiders. Sun says he is a hypocrite.
Not sure how the Sun can draw the conclusion that Brand is a hypocrite unless they can somehow show that he knows that his landlords are tax dodgers (even then he may not be a hypoceite depending on other issues).
Should he go to the press regulator on the basis that they have besmirched his good reputatuon repuattion?
Free press and all that but I don't see how they can justify the healdine unless they know something we don't......
