The British press prints a lot of garbage so this is no surprise. Yes, but unlike the American press, they also print a lot of truth.
As the medicine man once said; "Eat the fish, spit out the bones."

150,000,000. wonder if they think the lie was worth it...I’d continue the suit and laugh all the way to the bank as they go out of business. Plus a warning to other publications to be very care when talking about her.
rumors don't count as fact..
To: txrefugee
Yep. There’s the campaign money.

I said $100,000.00....spoke to soon. She's suing for $150,000 million.
She's already won the court case. Now it will go to settle out of court....so let's say.... one hundred million for St. Jude would be about right.
To: Cen-Tejas
Hey...Gary Condit got $11 million for his defamation suit.
To: Kaslin
What scumbags. This is not an “oops sorry” kind of story. I hope the bastards can be made to grovel. Full page front page apology at a minimum. I don’t know how it works in the UK, but they do have much tougher libel standards, the Daily Mail may still have legal problems, I don’t know.

That's no retraction... blaming the readers for "misinterpretation" is a weasel response.Exactly. Sue the bastards.

I guess this is why we haven’t seen more of Melania on the campaign.
Now we will I hope. She’s a great asset, especially on the immigration issue.

POS Daily Mail’s headline reads: “Melania Trump: A retraction”.. EXCUSE ME? Intentionally misleading headline made to appear as though Melania is retracting a statement.

I upped my first call to $100 million....all to St. Jude’s.
To: Kaslin
One thing I like about the UK is that their libel laws actually have teeth.

Sorry, but such a case is almost impossible to win, at least in US.
Mrs. Trump is a “public person.” As such it is her legal burden to PROVE that the story was published WITH THE INTENT of damaging Mrs. Trump, and the newspaper KNEW it was false.
Proving such intent is virtually impossible.
It would be an easier case in the UK, but still long and difficult.

100 k?
You know little regards the art of the deal.
Original suit threatened is for 150M (M) which caused the retraction.
I think Jude's would be happy with say....
75 to 100M?

‘Jurors in the Hulk Hogan sex tape case (Gawker) ignored a plea for mercy Monday and added $25 million to the $115 million they already awarded ex-wrestler Hulk Hogan’ money.cnn.com
Let the lawsuit proceed. Make ‘em pay.
