It appears that the freedom to say whatever you like even if you lie about what you have said is far more important in the USA than the integrity of the person you are accusing of doing something they have never done.
It would seem that a sex worker in America alleged that she spend time showing David Beckham her stamp collection the only problem with her 'claim' is that David Beckham was at the time at the other end of the continent. When DB took the case to court the court through the case out on the basis (I think) that the sex worker had the right to exercise her freedom of expression?
So it would appear that anyone can say anything they like and put the stuff on the Internet and there is nothing anyone can do to defend themselves? This can't be right or fair. The US system on libel law is ridiculous and out of date and more should be done to defend those who have a reputation to defend. I am with David Beckham on this one!
