That's what it said in The Sun - Trolls -I was quoting them. If you don't like the word take it up with The Sun.

And Carter Ruck never do pro bono work.

What lawyer does? :-D

Watson Woodhouse near us does :-D :-D
Quite often on high profile cases :-D :-D

I have finished his book now and found it very informative

He cooperated with the British police all the way :-D :-D

Guinevere Report 24 Apr 2016 15:39

He may think he did, Joy. Brit cops have said different. I don't know who to believe.

But I do know Carter Ruck never do Pro Bono. I don't think any libel specialists do.

I think they have had enough out of a fund
That was meant to help find a lost little Girl :-D

Guinevere

Guinevere Report 24 Apr 2016 15:55

No one has to give money to the fund.

No one has to give money to a discredited ex-cop. I certainly wouldn't but people can choose how to spend their own money, surely?

So why are people who gave to one Trolls
Yet not to the other
Who have wasted millions suing people :-(

Please read his book Guinevere and then read Kates
and come back and tell me what you think
I really would like your View after reading both :-D :-D

As I said, Joy, I was quoting The Sun. The Sun said they were trolls, if you don't like it ask them, I'm not responsible for their editorial decisions.

I won't read either book. I prefer unbiased accounts from journalists and writers I trust and from interviews I've seen.

Unbiased accounts from journalists
Rolls about laughing

There is no such thing ;-) ;-)

I would rather believe in the Easter bunny or Santa
than there been an unbiased Journalist out their somewhere :-D :-D

Guinevere Report 24 Apr 2016 16:16

You must be reading the wrong papers, Joy, there are some unbiased journos around. A shame you've never read any of their work.

Maybe Guinevere
But i prefer to live in the real world

Not read yesterdays secondhand news ;-) ;-)

I learned long ago not to believe all
I read in any Newspaper

Guinevere

Guinevere Report 24 Apr 2016 16:41

No one says you should believe all you read in newspapers, did they?

I said you were reading the wrong ones if you think all journos are biased. There are some excellent journos out there and not all write for newspapers. Having said that some newspapers are a lot more reliable than others, obviously.

I certainly live in the real world, not the realms of fantasy dreamed up by some journalists and websites.

Strange
For some reason, the Irish version of today's Sun did not publish this report

Maybe the Irish are to bright to fall for this rubbish :-D :-D

So I've had a nice email from GR saying they understand my frustration and they are monitoring who pushes the button wrongly etc, etc, but the post has gone.

I've asked them why, if they agree there was nothing wrong with it.

*shakes head sadly*

JoyBoroAngel Report 25 Apr 2016 14:39

Well that's good
Maybe they will think twice before pressing it again :-D

Guinevere

Guinevere Report 25 Apr 2016 15:17

I doubt that.

But I do hope they are feeling a bit silly for making such a stupid mistake. :-D
