Re: Message from The Estate on the Tabloids / Est files with UK Press Complaints Commission
I don't know if it's true that the estate first contacted the Press Commission on July 1st. I've been in contact with and have been emailing Ben Gallop of the Press Commission, and he contacted me again on July 12th and told me that was the first day that the estate made contact with them to officially file a complaint against Sunday People/The Mirror. They didn't even file a complaint against the Daily Mail. And they should have. Now my complaint against the Daily Mail has been put on hold.
Either way, it's good that the estate is now pursuing it. But in my opinion, they should have been more aggressive, and moved quicker. They should have felt the fury that we did when those slanderous articles were first put out.
I was talking to one of the fans and she said that she contacted the Estate right after the first tabloid story leaked about fake FBI flies and the Estate team replied that they flied the complaint on July 1st, 2 days after the story first borke out.
