Elton John Libel Payout
The Daily Mail newspaper in the United Kingdom was recently ordered to pay Sir Elton John 100,000 pounds. The publication criticized his rude behavior at his annual AIDS charity ball.
The Daily Mail claimed that Elton "had issued a bizarre and absurd edict to guests.. ordering them not to approach him.. thereby acting like old fashioned royalty or some tinpot dictator and exhibiting self-important, arrogant and rude behavior bordering on paranoia."
There have been accounts of
bloggers being sued too, so I guess buygazette better be nice to
rich people and never
offend anyone.
