Russell Brand Successfully Sues The Sun. Uses The Money Wisely...

Comedian, wordsmith and West Ham fan Russell Brand successfully sued the Sun for lying about his personal life last December. He is putting the proceeds to good use.

I got some money suing The S*n who lied about me. I am making a donation to the #JFT96 campaign. A tiny piece of justice.

Now, some alert folk with long memories have pointed out that Brand is a former contributor to the tabloid but we can all undergo the odd Damascene conversion from time to time.
