‘Disappearing Dan Wootton Articles Show a Serious Need for S40 Alternative’

The influence of the rich and powerful over what can and cannot be published in the UK is longstanding and often rooted in a broken system. But it is not an unfixable problem. Last week, the Guardian, the Mirror, various other Reach sites, and The National removed stories after a legal warning made by a lawyer acting for suspended GB News presenter and former MailOnline columnist Dan Wootton, following a Byline Times investigation into his conduct and subsequent Metropolitan Police investigation.
In response, a spokesperson for the Guardian Media Group told Press Gazette bluntly: “Following a review, the article has been taken down.”
The basis for such legal threats is often along the lines of ‘the police investigation triggers a right to privacy’, with the 2022 decision of ‘Bloomberg LP v ZXC’, where the Supreme Court found pre-charge suspects have a reasonable expectation of privacy, invariably cited.
