Innocent Until Proven Newsworthy?
We often hear how those accused of rape and sexual assault should have their identities kept secret as it could damage their reputation if found not guilty.
Along those same lines, should newspapers be allowed to get away with naming those who have not been charged of other offences?

that Guardian report doesn't name them, even when others had. But yes, I would have thought there was a case for suppressing names until charges are laid. After that, it's fair to report on the justic process, even if the accused are eventually cleared.
And now they're saying maybe there never was a drone? What is going on?

The problem anyone named by newspapers have is that lawyers would be able to argue that the story (that they were being questioned) itself was big news, and that people would want to know who the suspects are.
What feels wrong at the moment is that there were reports yesterday that made the pair out to be weirdos with very strong suggesothat they were ‘eco-warriors’ (this could’ve come from the police).
It reminds me a bit of the Christopher Jeffries case a few years back.

The daily mail is an appalling gossip mongering rag which stirs up trouble for whomever it gets in it's sights. This latest 'naming and shaming' of people who allegedly flew drones over Gatwick is disgusting and I would hope that it is charged with inciting hatred and similar charges. Disgraceful way to behave.
// I agree they should not have been named at least until they were charged.//
nooooo - the law is the opposite way round
rules about prejudice come in WHEN they have been charged
like sir doo dah - they can be named until they are charged. Sir Cliff recovered damages under some pretty odd circumstances ( = rich mens justice but twas ever so).
A tenant in rent arrears named me to the police as a child molester (hers of course). I had to put up with it whilst insisting that being named, did NOT prevent me from serving other court papers on her for debt (kinda linked if you think about it). It all came out in the end (pun intended) and she went under in the sum of £29k
yeah 29 000 ( er £28400 was some one else's)
This is how the law is meant to work
I got the debt pinned to her muvvuz address
because that was where she lived when the judgement came in...and the law is meant to work like that
1964 case - scrunty and son are investigated by fraud police - was an actionable case in law ( loss:affected share price)

Before being charged I believe reporting and headlines should show a level of restraint - the one from the Mail on Sunday certainly doesn't even though it purported to ask a question.
