I’m not a fan of Rangers but they seem prepared to tackle the BBC …
“Rangers owner Craig Whyte has said he will take legal action over a BBC documentary which carried allegations of criminality in his past dealings. The documentary heard from a government agency that he controlled a company despite being banned as a director.
The programme, Rangers: The Inside Story, was shown on Thursday night. A spokesman for Mr Whyte said he “strenuously refutes” the “unfounded and defamatory allegations” allegations aired in the programme. In a statement, the spokesman said: “Craig Whyte strenuously refutes these unfounded and defamatory allegations and has instructed his lawyers, Carter Ruck, to commence immediate legal proceedings against the BBC. Any repetition of these false accusations will also be met with legal action.”
In response, a spokesman for BBC Scotland said: “We stand by the investigation which was produced according to our rigorous editorial standards on fairness, accuracy and impartiality.”
You have to laugh…..
