So you could use a logo with two small lightening strikes on your furniture, (symbolising the electricity of the moment) and get a ready market then?

Did you read the editor of the NOTW giving out about it.

“our press is less free today after another judgement based on privacy laws emanating from Europe”.

Always ready to stir up a bit of xenophobia.

What a cunt.

Like I said Bock it was all just good clean S&M fun. Frankly who wouldn’t enjoy a young lady ordering them about in a German accent. If you were to believe the British press every time a couple of Germans get together for a brew they’re trying to resurrect the Reich.

Everyone is reading about this case today because it involves a public figure who sued, but I’d like to make the point that ordinary sex workers, who are not in the public eye, are being exposed by the media all the time in the name of sensational sex stories. Tabloid newspapers especially frequently run articles exposing ordinary “working girls”, despite the fact it is not against the law to work as an escort and thus these ladies have committed no crime. The lives of many sex workers in the UK and Ireland have been ruined by this type of journalism. Last month, in Ireland, a TV show exposed two separate independent escorts on national TV for apparently no reason other than salacious TV. I don’t know if today’s verdict will discourage this type of journalism but I hope it will.

The fine is only the tip of the iceberg, apperently Max was awarded his costs as well and that’s rumoured to be around the million mark.

While I’d love to think that this judgement will be treated as a landmark and maybe give the celebs back some of there privacy from the gutter press, I have a feeling that they will just consider it a ‘business cost’ and continue as always.

Hell, NOTW are calling it a bad day for the freedom of the press!!! FFS you spanners when has freedom of the press ever entitled them to just make things up?

Actually this will put a big dent in the tabloids lust for scandal. This is the first time a “celebrity” has sued under the EU right to privacy law, as opposed to slander laws. This means that most tabloids will have difficulty reporting on privacy issues, especially sexual behaviour, which are deemed as private. This is a big deal legally.

Unfortunately this won’t put a dent in the News of the Worlds lust for scandal.
Before all this not many people knew who Max Mosley was. Now thanks to a prostitute bringing in a hidden video camera and filming their seisún everyone knows what he’s into. I wonder how much she got from the news of the world for the tape?
Personally I’d rather not know about the S&M habits of pensioners, but then again I don’t read the News of the World.
Has the news of the world turned into a newspaper for OLD people porn?
