Making the best of a bad situation (2)
The Telegraph on their former owner being convicted of fraud:
Conrad Black case lacked evidence, say jurors
Conrad Black was found not guilty on the majority of fraud charges against him because of the lack of “paper evidence”, one of the jurors in the case said.
Of course, he was still guilty of three counts of fraud. Which, at the time of writing, is three more than both me and Adam combined. There is also the fact that perhaps if one was going to commit major fraud, one wouldn't write all the evidence down. But meh.
The news did make me giggle though. Not in the same league as the news as Alan Johnston's release, but marvellous nonetheless.
Cory
Still fairly surprising given the way that all of his media friends - which, being a media magnate, he had several - have been going on about the unfairness of it all and how he would surely soon be found innocent, the prosecution being entirely envious of the great man's success. (Comment this)
