Simon Singh To Appeal In UK Court Today

TACD writes "Simon Singh, author, television presenter and known critic of pseudoscience, is in court today appealing the decision made against him last May over his use of the term 'bogus' to describe the methods used by the British Chiropractic Association. Today's decision could have far-reaching implications for the movement to reform Britain's horrifically outdated libel laws (that even America is making moves to protect its citizens against), and to begin taking steps to elevate Britain above the likes of China when it comes to open debate and freedom of speech."

Jesus Christ all this talk of hyperbole makes me want to shoot a nuclear rocket through my fucking head.

It's probably hard to be impressed by anything at all when your formal title and name works out to be Lord Chief Justice Lord Judge.
