Newsnight In A Twist

The BBC’s flagship news program has really got itself in a twist lately.

They may or may not have libelled a politician and they really got it wrong with Jimmy Savile.

When she was a pupil, C did one pupillage in chambers specialising in libel.  Every night, someone from chambers used to read the next day’s copy of a well-known tabloid to make sure they hadn’t defamed anybody.
