The BBC Exposed!

[Quiet Jim 897]

It's not a crime.

The Code will continue to work alongside criminal law but will apply to a wider range of activities. The

existing criminal offences of insider dealing and market manipulation will remain and continue to carry

very stiff penalties against someone found guilty – up to seven years in jail.

Market abuse as defined in theCode is not a criminal offence, so conviction will not result in a jail sentence. However, we can seek to

impose an unlimited fine if we can prove that market abuse has occurred.

Good work QJ , keep fighting the fight mate

[WATP-FOREVER 5,231]

Not so Quiet Jim - well done mate.

Paddy FuckingMcManus - wonder if he's got any hereditary problems from blight.

They dont even try to hide their bile bigotry and hate.

I was quoting someone saying that libel is a crime, it's not.

I have had a think, and i think he is a cunt.

disclaimer: I am not angry at him or feeling aggressive towards him, and i certainly wouldn't wish harm on him, i just think he's a cunt.

[elephants stoned 2,994]

There is a definite case.

All assets where purchased as a going concern.

Some news outlet acknowledges our history;

http://www.scottishfootballleague.com/club/rangers/

http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/spl/rangers/

Others bitter bastards will follow.

Rather have our history than theirs!

But the BBC must be brought to task first.

Lies, Damned Lies, Bigoted Lies and Sectarian Lies.

[elephants stoned 2,994]

There is no such thing as "slander" in Scotland gents. Its called defamation.

Ok this is defamation then, Mr pedantic

[delamonty 992]

Because it's in print and it is the more serious crime of libel .

Yup. And that, is a massive difference. Libel you can prosecute.

Did you think that before you posted or just since. In fact I'm not even sure you're allowed to think that anymore.

You may just think you think it when really if you think about it I'm not sure that I think that you think that you might think it.

Or maybe you're entirely correct in your original assumption and he is indeed not the Organ Grinder but merely the monkey.

I am still currently thinking it

Expect a bang at the door from the "Thought it " police.

[Blumhoilann 6,712]

Are the BBC somehow trying to justify Dalys' award? I wonder.The once ALL powerful BBC have fallen from grace in the eyes of many in OUR once great nation.Corruption,coverups and now deliberately attempting to undermine the flotation of a ligitimate company on the stock market.Sadly those who are FORCED to fund this hideous organisation,are often it's victims.Keep up the good work QJ.

[El Carpintero 546]

Exposed in what way? Has there been huge widespread media coverage of an anti-Rangers conspiracy at BBC?

[DietofWorms 2,063]

I think lawyers are poor Human Beings.

*awaits knock on door*

Gogzy suddenly thinks soap-on-a-rope is a good Christmas gift idea.

ouch, you are fucked for posting lies mate, everyone knows lawyers are NOT human Beings.

[Hird 2]

Good, we have a lawyer on board!

Anything wrong with this article?

http://www.bbc.co.uk...w-west-20414804

I'm not a lawyer - but not far away from it.

referring to Rangers as the former club is probably a breach of the BBC's own policies on reporting and the Press Commission Regulations (I'm pretty sure something like this exists but in a pre-Leveson form its not exactly strict). Probably not defamatory though - a defamatory comment has to be capable of lowering the estimation of the defamed party in the opinion of society generally - for example to accuse a person of being a paedophile when they are not (see recent examples...BBC). To innacurately report somehting would not suffice IMO

[Falcoholic 1,348]

Never mind gogzy, the good ole RST will have a whip round for ya family when you're safely snibbed up.

Canna guarantee you or anyone else will see the folding tho. After all, it's the thought that counts.

[Hird 2]

there also has to be malicious intent in the statement for it to be defamatory - i think it would be impossible to show that in this case.

Not meaning to sound like a know-it-all (because i most certainly am not one) it doesnt matter if it was in print or spoken word - the statement just has to be "communicated"

Did'nt want to pipe up too much with law on these boards because there are never ending questions to answer relating to the administration/liquidation etc!!

I am part way through the BBC complaints process and got much the same initial response as QJ.

The BBC appears to be in breach of its own charter by continuing to report as fact; "new club" ; assertions that are not consistent with the evidence. This could be interpreted as bias, unfairness or factual inaccuracy all of which are included within the BBC charter.

In addition I would have thought that there will be a point at which continuing to report as fact things you know to be untrue becomes actionable ?
