Frank Bough - that avuncular figure in the cosy pullovers. Was what he did illegal? That was a shocker and he fell on his sword so to speak.
That was a basic coke and hookers scenario, no? Maybe a dominatrix involved?
Some illegality there, tbh.

If it's not true, why the suspension? The Sun must've made the BBC aware of the evidence they have, and possibly shared it with them. As someone said earlier, why did the young person wait until now to say it's not true? Why let so many people be thrown under the bus over the last 72 hours?
Why would a supposed caring mother very concerned about drug use tell such lies? Why hasn't Huw made a statement as no one elses name is being bandied about anymore? None of it makes any sense!

ETA: Agree with poster who said this could be a distraction. But why ruin the career of a much beloved news anchor? I just don't get it.
Apparently the young person told The Sun via whatsapp on Friday evening that it’s all ‘rubbish.’

The whole Johnny Depp trial was not about whether he was a wife abuser but whether The Sun had a reasonable expectation that Johnny Depp was an abuser based on the information they had. They won, this is no different. If the Mother came to them with (potentially fabricated) evidence then they can print the story.
but they also had another side to the story on Friday which contradicted what they printed but they chose not to mention that…

Also vile to accuse and name a man of being a pon but yet here we are all talking about it.
Two wrongs don’t make a right. Please show me where I’ve called anyone a pon, you might I certainly haven’t.

So why are we only hearing this now, conveniently just as the 6 o clock news is starting? I thought they went through a lawyer today? So many different contradictions my heads spinning! I thought the Alice Evans thread was a mindf**k!

Dear oh dear.

I knew it was all very dodgy, but even I wasn't expecting this. I'm not entirely sure that The Sun are totally in the clear here if it's true that they were messaged by the person concerned before running the story to say it wasn't true.

I'm not sure that they'd be able to wave an affidavit around and say "but she pinkie promised".

Yikes. We're going to need a bigger popcorn, folks.

What if the evidence the mother has given to the Sun is documents / information that is not hers to share?

Copies of bank statements, phone records, etc which belong to her ‘child’ who is in fact an adult, who has not consented to their data being shared.

The Sun cannot share that without consent of the data owner, can they? So they can’t publish the ‘evidence’.

They won but was later discredited in the American case that I followed. Sorry I didn’t follow the sun trial as they lie anyways regardless.
