I'm on the fence. While I agree that they need to deal with what they create, I can see situations where an injunction may be warranted, such as a "give me £100,000 or I go to the tabloids with a made up story". Once something hits the papers the damage is done, even if it is false and in those cases an injunction may buy the time to reveal that before its all over the country.Jon wrote:I don't like these injunction laws at all, I'm no fan of the celebrity worshipping, gossip chasing culture that has seen this become one of the biggest news stories of the year [in the UK], giving Twitter record traffic spikes [in the UK], but if someone lives their life and makes their living in the public eye, in a country with the aforementioned obsessions, they should take care not to get involved in a situation that could blow up in their face, or just be prepared to deal with the consequences.
