picture with a caption saying "here is X.... Y..... (wearing the green
jacket), the well-known paedophile, stalking children at Warwick
Castle", then you can expect X.... Y.....'s legal representatives to be
in touch in short order.
I'm playing Devil's advocate here but would this situation be affected
by whether or not the said allegation was true or not?
Of course, if the publisher of the alleged libel can *prove* that it
is true. Truth is always a defence to a civil action for defamation.
