Prince Harry used his victory in a lawsuit against the British tabloid publisher Mirror Group Newspapers to take the British press to task and demand prosecution for journalists who break the law.
“Today is a great day for truth, as well as accountability,” The Duke of Sussex said in a statement read by his lawyer outside court after he was awarded $180,000 in damages in a case against the Mirror Group newspapers, according to multiple reports.
Calling the victor “vindicating and affirming,” Harry said, “I’ve been told that slaying dragons will get you burned. But in light of today’s victory and the importance of doing what is needed for a free and honest press, it is a worthwhile price to pay.
