Four Sun journalists found not guilty, but the Ministry of Defence official Bettina Jordan-Barber was jailed in January ? So it was an offence for this woman to leak information for money, but it was OK for the journalists to bribe her !

There is something wrong here !

So if it was "in the public interest" for the journalists to bribe the MOD official, why wasn't it the same for the woman ? It doesn't make sense !

Were the Jury at the journalists trial aware that this woman was found guilty in January ?

I think being a Sun journalist should be an offence!

No, mikey, but they were told after the trial ended.

the journos' newspaper was benefiting, divebuddy. (And they may have got the odd bonus or two.)

It probably works like prostitution, ok to pay for it when it's offered, not ok to offer it for money.

AB lost interest in 'dodgy' press stories all the while The Daily Mirror were in the frame. Now 'we're' showing interest again. I wonder why that might be, lol.
