Cases

Charman v Orion Publishing Group & others (No.3) (CA)

Comment

This judgment further elucidates the parameters of the reportage defence following the earlier judgment of Roberts v Gable, although much probably remains to be resolved about the precise ambit and application of this defence.

As for Reynolds, the decision is the first since the restatement of the law in Jameel and will be welcomed by the media as a vindication for serious journalism.
