Jameel v Wall Street Journal Europe Sprl

Jameel & Ors v Wall Street Journal Europe Sprl was a House of Lords judgment on English defamation law. The issue was whether the defamatory article was protected by Reynolds privilege. The judgment was an affirmation of Reynolds v Times Newspapers Ltd and effectively upholds a public interest defence in libel cases.
