 House of Lords - Grobbelaar (Appellant) v News Group Newspapers Ltd and Another (Respondents)
On the newspaper's appeal against this decision the Court of Appeal (Simon Brown, Thorpe and Jonathan Parker LJJ) set it aside as perverse and entered judgment for the newspaper: [2001] 2 All ER 437.
The authenticity of the audio and video tapes obtained by the newspaper of these meetings between the appellant and Mr Vincent was not challenged at the trial, and in seeking to justify what had been published in the articles the newspaper very largely relied on what the appellant had himself said.
The newspaper did not allege in its defence that any of the three goals scored by Manchester United were deliberately let in by the appellant but did contend that he had made two "blinding saves" accidentally.

 Libel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
A newspaper that is unable to prove the truth of a published defamatory statement is most likely to turn to one of two defences; fair comment (now more accurately described as honest comment on a matter of public interest) and common law qualified privilege.
Although the "newspaper rule" allows a newspaper publisher, proprietor or editor to withhold information about the name of the writer of the article which is the subject of the action and about the sources of information supporting the article, this rule only pertains to interlocutory proceedings.
Although not a defence, newspapers and broadcasters may plead in mitigation of damage that libel was done, "without actual malice and without gross negligence" and that a, "full apology" was made "at the earliest possible opportunity." Any defaming party can then offer an apology in the hopes of having their damages reduced.

 Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust v. News Group Newspapers Ltd
In such circumstances, and in order to save the possible expense of a new trial, I see no objection to his inviting the jury to say what sum they would fix as compensation and what additional sum, if any, they would award if they were entitled to give exemplary damages.
In the present action the judge was clearly justified, in the circumstances in which the defendant, in breach of the plaintiffs copyright, handed these photographs to the press knowing the use to which they were going to be put, in awarding substantial and heavy damages of a punitive nature.
In fixing damages under section 96, I have regard to the fact that the photograph is immediately topical, that it is an apt illustration to a story concentrating on the terror supposedly felt by Ms Metcalfe, that it is prominent and clear.
