SorryMax

It seems that we all owe Max Mosley a huge and groveling apology. Max is the man who heads up the world’s Formula 1 racing. He was wrongly accused by the British red top tabloid, the News of the World, of taking part in a Nazi oriented sadomasochistic sex romp with several women dressed in German prison garb and speaking in German. This was a private moment in a private apartment, paid for by Max, ever the gentleman; it was clearly not to be shared by everyone.

The News of the World reported this story in all its glory and was the loser in the British High Court this afternoon when Max Mosley’s case against them was won. He was awarded substantial damages and costs and this is a potential curb on the freedom of the press in the UK.

But, we all have to bow to the law; it was not a Nazi sex romp, just a private session for the discerning sexual tourist. Sorry Max!
