...is my beloved Judy Davis. Now, don't make me explain my love for her. It's a strange and wonderful thing, this love for the pasty coloured actress, but nevertheless...
This acclaimed Australian actress recently won a libel suit against the Sydney Daily Telegraph, owned by media mogul Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation. It was reported back in 2006 that Davis objected to some plan for lights at a football oval. The minute details aren't too important. What matters is that the newspaper then went on to defame the actress by implying that she was selfish and a hater of children (or at least heartless towards the children.)
So what did Judy do? She sued. And won. I know it may seem like nothing, and she is definately not the first person to sue a newspaper and win, however, it is a nice reminder to know that if you are done wrong by what is supposed to be a fair and accurate institution then you can get some compensation, and have your name reverted back to its original state (well, let's hope so.) While Davis may be a king pin in the acting arena, it is still fantastic to see the little guy stand up to the big conglomerate and win. Here's to the underdog!
