As I was researching information for my class paper, I ran into an interesting article. There is a movement afoot to support a writer who made comments about a medical procedure and is now being sued for libel by the British Chiropractic Association. Evidently the burden of proof is on the defendant in British libel law, and there are other issues as well. Interesting reading. Here is the short link, but there is also a link to read the background on the case if anyone is interested. It's a long read.
