I don't think that's in the slightest bit true.

I certainly don't think Jan Moir should be prevented *by the law* from
writing her crap. That doesn't mean everyone has to sit passively by
without complaint while the Daily Mail publishes it. They get their
free speech, and we get ours to say we think their opinion is a
steaming pile of shit.

I do think it is a problem in general though - there ought to be
something more to prevent the newspapers routinely printing total
lies about whoever and whatever they want. There ought to be *some*
sort of responsibility to be vaguely in the neighbourhood of the
truth.
