    The Daily Telegraph will not be able to use truth as a defence in its defamation lawsuit against actor Geoffrey Rush.https://trib.al/1gmqPVC

        Look, I hate to be a wet blanket and a pedant (actually, I like it) BUT it is Geoffrey Rush who has a defo suit against The Tele. Where have all the Oz subs gone, long time passing... @bigbasilb @Dunhacking

        I think it’s high time we introduce a truth in journalism law that enables us to ban Rupert Murdoch media, like Britain has that enables it to ban Fox News

        They can't use truth as a defence because they fail to show there was any.

        Murdoch rips out $6.5 billion annually from his Australian businesses. He doesn't pay a cent in tax. Then uses that money to prop up rags like "The Australian" & "Daily Telegraph" to defame opponents and spread his false narratives. #TaxReform is urgently needed to stop him.

        Rather an interesting statement/headline, given your mob is in court for exactly this sort of inaccuracy.

        There’s something you don’t see every day. The words “truth” and “Daily Telegraph” in the same sentence.
