From the article:

Empire's directors have also taken action against opponents who have vented their spleen on social media sites. They demanded apologies and in some cases achieving commercial settlements for what Mr Marshall describes as public commentary that has affected Empire's share price but is "incorrect and defamatory of the company's directors".


Previously Brooke has warned us against discussing Wharf as they are part of a court action involving the company.

So is it appropriate for CM to be commenting publicly when he is a party to defamation cases some of which, two that I know of, are still subject to court action?
