    Payout plus legal costs would have been much bigger after quick trial in most favourable to libel jurisdiction...

    Considering the amount of times they publish such tripe they obviously aren't bothered about paying damages. I'm assuming they generate enough interest in ads etc to make it worth their while

    That article reads like the Fail did the apologising on her behalf. I can't see her ever actually admitting fault.

    hmm

    In a second article published on 29 December, which included pictures of the Mahmood family home, Hopkins added that Hamza Mahmood, Mohammed's son, was publishing "extremist material" on a Facebook page.
    Hamza Mahmood said he did not create the Facebook page, which was linked to him because of an error with his email address.
    Easy mistake to make one wonders if this is why the US stopped them?
