From a libel trial involving Private Eye in the UK
Quote:
David Turner-Samuels (for the Eye): With your permission, my lord, I will read an extract from The Times Literary Review — "Lord Russel's works could be said to be pornographic…"[17]
David Hirst, QC (for the plaintiff): Read the rest of the sentence.
David Turner-Samuels: "But they are not."
