I really feel sorry for Geoffrey Rush. I've met him so many times, chatted to him as he rose from an unknown to a huge star. You cannot get a nicer, less 'starry' unaffected genuine actor. And he adores and is devoted to his family.

Court hears how Daily Telegraph prepared Geoffrey Rush story

Two newspaper articles alleging actor Geoffrey Rush was involved in "inappropriate" behaviour during a Sydney theatre production were written using sources including an anonymous email and posts from social media, a court has heard.

Rush, 66, launched defamation action after The Daily Telegraph published stories in November and December 2017 alleging the actor had been investigated for inappropriate conduct during the Sydney Theatre Company's production of King Lear.

All that matters to the media is a good story. I said this 18 years ago but nobody listened!

Talk about skating on thin ice.

Just a matter of time before the Witch Hunt turns on to- the meejah and the legal fraternity.
