FROM BBCNEWS.COM: Springer opera court fight fails | ||
A Christian group has lost its High Court battle to prosecute the BBC’s director general over the screening of Jerry Springer – The Opera in 2005. Christian Voice director Stephen Green had hoped to overturn a previous ruling by a judge which forbade him from prosecuting Mark Thompson. Two judges ruled that broadcasters and theatres staging live productions could not be prosecuted for blasphemy. The BBC called the ruling an important decision in defence of free speech. | ||
