Meghan to receive £1 in damages after privacy case

[bots]

The Duchess of Sussex will receive £1 in damages from Associated Newspapers after the Mail on Sunday was found to have invaded her privacy.

The nominal sum was set out in court documents which formally confirm the newspaper has accepted defeat.

The Mail on Sunday published a handwritten letter that Meghan sent to her father Thomas Markle in 2018.

The media company will also pay an unspecified sum for a separate case of infringing her copyright.

Associated Newspapers previously indicated it was considering a further appeal to the Supreme Court, but the company has now accepted defeat in the long-running case.

Last February, the High Court had ruled against the newspaper group on the issue of privacy and copyright - saying the issues in the case were so clear cut that there was no need for a full hearing.

Associated Newspapers was refused permission to appeal against the decision but went to the Court of Appeal in an attempt to get the original ruling overturned.

The £1 might sound like small change, but Meghan's big ambition was about the principle rather than the pay-off.

But the court ruling in their favour and awarding £1 demonstrates that they were in the right and the paper was in the wrong, however there’s no evidence that they were financially disadvantaged by what the paper wrote. That’s the point of the token payment. People are trying to frame it as the court giving some sort of petty “piss take” verdict which is not the case and would be horrifyingly unprofessional and worrying if it was.

But people are like “Ha ha ha £1 the court clearly does not believe them and is mocking them haha cockadoodledoooooo.”

Load of nonsense.

If the court didn’t believe them the court would have ruled against them and not upheld the claim. They wouldn’t have ruled in their favour but only given £1 damages in some sort of playground “psyche!!!” prank for goodness sakes.

People just don’t understand the purpose or significance of the £1 damages so they make up their own (daft) explanation.

[joeysteele]

A fair bit of selective jibing at this actually.

The article clearly states that the media organisation will further pay an UNSPECIFIED sum to her for infringement of HER copyright.

I'd like to know what that sum is!!

For Meghan Markle, she has fought and won this, she hardly needs finances, the victory is and will remain hers, no matter how that upsets those who maybe hoped she'd be unsuccessful.

She won the case....good for her.

She won the case only because the MOS published too much of the letter instead of only parts relevant to her father wanting to answer the accusations made against him.
I personally couldn’t applaud anyone who schemed to allow 4 of her friends to reveal parts of the letter to the press which painted her father in a bad light and which were shown to be lies/out of context in subsequent emails revealed in court.

I personally couldn’t applaud anyone who withheld important documents from the court; therefore was in contempt of court, and outright lied about participation in the book, never mind all the other lies, manipulations and chaos she has caused previously.
As the present law dictates, she won the case on a technicality, but I certainly wouldn’t be applauding someone so devious as to use the press herself when it suits her to lie to the public to get their misplaced sympathies by deception.
But each to their own of course.

From all accounts I just see the Media and the public just ripping her apart for anything (including a miscarriage fgs) the only thing where I can't tell if Meghan was in the wrong is ultimately if her & Kate's feud led to Harry & William to fall out with each other.

But the public & the Media have been the aggressors against H&M every step of the way imo, and until one of those two does something to change my mind on that then I'll defend them and say that it's "not their fault" that this country likes to single people out to harass, but of course everyone else in the country is a saint bar H&M in some people's eyes.

I bet that our Media even prefers some criminals to Meghan, it's become that much of a sickness for them.

They published the letter at her fathers request after she had given 4 friends permission to reveal parts of it that painted her father in a bad light with no impartiality to People magazine. What Meghan had told them was out of context (as proven in the court documents). Her father asked the MOS that the letter be published to show the proper context.

Meghan should not have revealed personal conversations and lied while doing so to her unsuspecting friends, who took her words at face value, right?

Mock give me your opinion on this,

Harry sits in a police interview room and the detective says to Harry you said in your statement when Meghan told you she was suicidal you said you felt to ashamed to as for help, Harry says yes I did

Detective then asks, how is this possible that you should feel like that when

You yourself have had therapy your brother has had therapy you and your brother and sister in law have not only spoken publicly about the need to speak openly about mental health and seek help but you represent a mental health charity

Do you believe Harry is telling the truth?

It was nothing to do with the way they conducted any investigation - there was no 'investigation' by them?? - the MOS (not the DM) simply published the letter in full instead of just the relevant parts which would have shown Meghan had deceived by not giving the proper context.
The MOS lost because publishing the non - relevant parts was a breach of privacy and is currently unlawful. It was as simple as that.

I obviously have to agree with all you say above.

I have never, not just on this, ever had any liking for the ' Mail publications.
Across near all issues.
I wouldn't believe much in it as it operates from whatever its agenda is to issues or people rather than truth and facts, in my opinion.
Why people spend hundreds of pounds a year on this publication and indeed other so called news publications, is a mystery to me.
However they do, so fine, hundreds of pounds a year thrown into recycling bins.

I rarely comment on these threads, there's in my view no point.
As views are too entrenched.

However when there has been a clear, decision and ruling from the Courts, that the Duchess of Sussex is and was right, also justified to bring this action.
With the Mail being told repeatedly they were and are in the WRONG.

Then even that the victory won is picked at with near derision of their child's charity they set up and on about their finances.

This was likely never about money, this was from what she saw as a part of the media launching personal attacks on herself and her privacy.
It led to her determination to fight back, which she has and where she has WON all through too even against the further appeals of the gutter trash Mail.

That is the real victory, not finance.
In my opinion only of course.

She took on one of the so called rotten big boys of the media and she has come out on top.
I repeat I applaud anyone who takes on our disgraceful so called press.
Even moreso when they win too.

Your second full paragraph I agree with fully too.
The Sussexes mean nothing to me.
I don't know them, they will never affect my life.
It's only on here I come across anything about them.

The threads all go the same way on them, so I rarely comment.
However as I said, anyone defeating fully, any of the gutter trash press of the UK.
That for me is a great thing to learn about.

The Mail being for me, one of the worst for misrepresentation and true gutter like reporting.
It's one of, IF not now the worst of all of them.
So sorry, articles from the Mail for me, I've not a scrap of time for.

Actions have consequences.
Criminals are fined or imprisoned for many reasons.
H&M are ridiculed for many reasons.

Like Sheriff said, there will always be interest in the Royals. The ‘new generation’, the sons of Princess Diana and their wives are especially always going to be closely scrutinised. Meghan and Harry's attention seeking when they said they wanted a more private life, their outright lies, hypocrisies, manipulations, deceptions, pity partying etc lead to them being ridiculed.
Those in the public who don't have much interest in the Royals don't know the half of their devious shenanigans so don't understand peoples disdain of their actions.

To get good press and goodwill, being decent, sincere, honest people would work. :hee:

quite right Jet

no one has to read them if they dont want to:laugh:

But is it really?

From all accounts I just see the Media and the public just ripping her apart for anything (including a miscarriage fgs) the only thing where I can't tell if Meghan was in the wrong is ultimately if her & Kate's feud led to Harry & William to fall out with each other.

But the public & the Media have been the aggressors against H&M every step of the way imo, and until one of those two does something to change my mind on that then I'll defend them and say that it's "not their fault" that this country likes to single people out to harass, but of course everyone else in the country is a saint bar H&M in some people's eyes.

I bet that our Media even prefers some criminals to Meghan, it's become that much of a sickness for them.


People seem to forget that the public welcomed and liked Meghan when she came on the scene....look at the crowds that poured out for their wedding and watched it on television. She had a lot of good press and very little negativity (which will always come with the territory). People used to love Harry....
They are where they are now because of their lies and manipulation. At least 2/3 of the country no longer like them and its not all based on what is reported in the press... The Oprah dramatics where most of their accusations have been proven to be lies....the hypocritical preachings.. People can see it with their own eyes....you dont need to read a Newspaper.

Just to point out to those jumping in as usual.

I DON'T read the postings of the Mail on here.
Once I see a post quoting the Mail.
I ignore it and bypass it.
In fact there's more whole posts I'll avoid even reading in full.

That's if and when I even look in on these threads due to the nitpicking that takes place on near ALL of them.

I'm not bothered what the Sussexes get up to.
However I'll repeat again so it's clearer.
Anyone, ANYONE that is, or any organisation which takes on any of the UK's gutter trash media and wins will get applauded by me.
That's all I'm posting about these last few posts.
Now I have.
I'll go and avoid the pathetic nitpicking that continues on all these threads now.

I'm not interested in the slightest in the Mail or any other publication's twisting of facts and so called news to suit its own agendas.
No interest at all and I don't read them because I've no interest.
Just so you all know.

That's why I said "barely posted" and not "you haven't posted". Selective reading/comprehension is becoming a bit of a habit eh Cherie :nono:
