SP1 (ASX) The battle for iSignthis

Other's reactions? Come on. You cite yourself, an individual who was at the centre of defamation proceedings in an unrelated matter, and another who visits here on a semi-regular basis and who makes no secret of their allegiance. If you feel aggrieved, that may not be a "balanced" start from which to launch an assault. There's no rule against it but it dampens the argument. Quick question: Are all the journalists wrong in this matter or just a select few? My view is that to the reasonable fair-minded observer with no pecuniary interest, the coverage has been balanced, all things considered.

Agree with your point re: McEvoy J, but have been saying that all along. I look forward to the conclusion of the Hearing where, hopefully, the 2nd Defendant will testify. I think that may go a long way towards buttressing any defence, lest there be a yawning gap with the inevitable Jones v Dunkel submission to be available. Following that and closing addresses, McEvoy J's judgment will be delivered and accepted, regardless of the outcome.

@Transvenosis comments are simply a succession of dim, hollow rantings. To quote Keating when describing a former Treasurer: 'All tip and no iceberg'.

Again see no issue here I'm just providing a counter argument to your view the article was a balanced report and citing some others who shared the same view you feel it was balanced I and some others feel otherwise, simple.

There is one particular AFR journalist who has also been at the centre of defamation proceedings in this case and others so then his views also are of no consequence and at least one other journalist who has reported on this case has also been part of other non related defamation proceedings so his views also must be dismissed.

I remember a very balanced article in The Australian some time ago that was the best article I've seen on the whole case and a few online articles have also been good so no it is only a select few journalists who seem to provide a one sided view.

I too look forward to the conclusion of the hearing and Justice McEvoy's judgement as it is the only thing that matters, what goes on here is just a circus and a good place to have a bit of fun.
