The dark secrets of tabloid journalism outed, thanks in part to better journalists, a maligned prince and a rigorous judge.

So great to see Gerry Ferguson on the cover of The Advocate. Four and a half decades of law students were lucky to have learned from Gerry.

A win for court openness. Glad we got these unsealed in such a high profile case.

A window to the bail hearings of Tamara Lich & Pat King. Rare because bail hearings are usually banned. Great accounts by @glen_mcgregor and @JamesDBowie In an era where people claim truth by shouting loudest, the evidence based rigour of courts is striking & vital.
Palin v NYT verdict by both judge & jury shows the huge diffs between Cdn and US libel law. An honest blunder, promptly corrected, fails to meet malice test & case dismissed. Palin would likely have won in Cda, with the correction merely reducing damages.

Alwats been puzzled by how courts will allow sketches but - in many cases - ban photographs. A discreet, remote controlled still camera would be less intrusive and more accurate. Judges could set strict rules on what could be captured. The court could archive images. Why not?
BC has lost a giant of news. Longtime legendary @CKNW reporter George Garrett has died at the age of 89.
George Garrett was an epic mentor to so many journalists in BC. He shook your hand, insisted you call him George, and explained how much he liked your work and encouraged you to keep digging. Love you, George. And to his family, thank you for sharing him with us for so long. 🩷
This rogue Vice podcast episode is a lot of fun — and gets into something critical for us to get a handle on soon, namely, the down-ranking of hard topics by social media and advertisers. We need news about war and drugs, not just cars and beauty. pca.st/podcast/78a90d…
