A lot of that is down to the lack of living witnesses imo.

Then you're saying there is no evidence apart from anecdotal.

It's nice how the "manager woman" doesn't warrant you to use her name.

[BBC director of news Fran Unsworth said the judgment would not just affect the corporation, but every media organisation's freedom to report on police investigations.
She said the resulting lack of scrutiny could "undermine the wider principle of the public's right to know" and would "put decision making in the hands of the police".]

I'd rather the decision was in the hands of the police, than in the hands of a newspaper or agency that is interested only in viewing figures and circulation.

Some unknown wouldn't have been on the lunchtime news, his house being shown live by BBC helicopter.

Whereabouts in American is someone who hasn't been charged or even spoken to at that point, having their home raided by police, live on TV... an everyday occurrence? I'd be interested to know...

There's always that "no smoke without fire " mentality .
Poor Cliff , utterly disgusting how he's been treated .
I'm glad he's won .

OJ Simpson's car chase. Is that what you meant by "it's an everyday occurrence in the US"?

You are so right, Arista but don't forget that the award made to Cliff against South Yorkshire Police is 'Public Tax-Payers' money too.

None of it adds up to the £4million which is roughly the amount of Cliff's legal costs. Furthermore, I find it less offensive that they pay their fine with licence payers cash, than the hugely inflated salaries and bonuses splashed around in the BBC's upper echelons, usually to old school chums sipping champagne and leaning decidedly Left.

Am I being misunderstood on different threads today, Liv?

They cannot pay Cliff enough for what he has been through as far as I am concerned and I totally agree with you.

I was merely pointing out that both payments are Tax-Payers money.
