The problem with the UK's libel laws is that you have to prove what you say.
This makes sense if I write an article calling you a child murderer - you sue me and I have to prove it's true (ie you murdered a child) you don't have to prove you didn't. But this logic backfires when I accuse you of lying, I have to prove you are wrong (that your treatment doesn't work) - you don't have to prove it does. The UK's libel laws are also notorious for siding with the person being libeled. That's why Hollywood celebs always sue in London, and why we can't see the south park scientology episode. |
