The 'article' doesn't say that, what it says is that their reporter, Jim, contacted them (so the fucker's floating round on here, or was...) then strung them along.

As I say, a bit shit.

About the level of "journalism" that you'd expect from the tabloids!

But did anyone else find it amusing that immediately below the article there was a link to another titled "Glastonbury Surprise: Libertines rumoured to fill empty Pyramid Stage slot"? That couldn't have been entirely accidental, could it?

What did the star hope to gain from that article except to try humiliate a regular couple for no reason?! I'm not saying that we should be ashamed of our fab membership, but people are narrow minded, and that piece of shitty so called journalism is just sensationalised bullshit. I hate tabloids with a passion, scummy worthless f*cks that try to make a buck and scandal out of nothing.

So is the next expose going to be a single mum on plenty of fish?

They are not famous so no public interest claim.

What did they do to deserve this exposure.

Blurred pics spread nationally did they give permission for republication?

for a start, legally if you put something in the public domain it is open to fair use. The dumb ass legal warning that people copy n paste offers no protection in law.

I'm pretty sure a married CEO of the paper having an affair with his single mum employee would get more attention from the public if I let that out into the public domain. He has much more to lose than I do if they come after me. So come on - take your best shot. What's good for the goose...

Fab is not in the public domain it is a private members forum.

the Star should have obtained consent to publish the pictures sent to the journalist.

The data protection act protects the pictures and the couples privacy in such cases.

There have been cases of papers losing when they have photographed people in the street entering gyms etc. as it is a breach of their rights.

If the couple are still on Fab perhaps they might comment on whether they gave consent to publish or not, I suspect they did.

It once again proves that the titillation of the frustrated vanilla world is needed to sell scandal rags.

This journalistic slime is to provide vicarious exitement for those poor individuals who are so indoctrinated with sexually repressive thoughts that they need to read about other peoples sex lives to get a semi-hardon.

The paper needs to balance this article now with one about how a couple have not had sex for 14 years and how the wife has never experienced sexual pleasure.

as far as i am aware fab is not a private members forum. Non users are able to view the site and profiles.

It is not against the law to take photographs of people in a public space.unless of course you are harrassing them or shoving a camera into their face or stopping them from going about their business.

About 4 years ago a new club opened up near spaghetti junction,was on the industrial side of the road backing on to the Bham_Fazeley canal in the shadows of the M6 motorway,one evening some "Newbies" turned up and were mingling chatting to the others there and on sunday the local paper had an "Expose" of a swingers club which had not inteferred with locals living on the other side of the road at all as there was a barrier running down the centre of the road leading cars to the flyover of the M6 & spaghetti junction so no cars were annoyingly parked there but well clear,no one had known it was a swingers club in the previous 12 months it had been there!.

The club then moved to another part of town.

It certainly makes it clearer how the debauchery... the depravity... is the journalist's doing. And, in that sense, the terrorism being advertised by tabloids is often their doing too.

Back in the 80's the government banned the IRA from being in the news because they recognised how the media was giving them oxygen. We could do with some enlightened thinking like that again.

Agreed. 24hr news channels ramp it up too. A bit like the 7/7 coverage last week. All for memorials etc but that was relentless, non stop, as if it had just happened.
