Our courts have an extraordinarily restrictive attitude to publication, compared,that is, to the United States. We might surmise that the information concerns somebody British. There was talk of a British TV presenter being one woman involved. You might think that the rule would be to allow publication, in general, and leave it to anyone named to sue for libel (and get enormous damages and costs plus a retraction if their reputation is badly affected). But unfortunately our libel laws are so ridiculous in practice that the person named can get injunctions which are so wide as, inter alia, to not only stop publication of any potential libel but to stop even the existence of the injunction being mentioned ! (This is our 'freedom of speech' )
A more interesting question is : Why does anybody care what some famous sportsman gets up to in his sex life ? How is that of public interest? He's not the Pope or the Archbishop of Canterbury, someone whose very job involves telling us how to live morally or giving moral guidance !
