It's March 27th, welcome in, this is Entertainment and celebrity news, where pop culture meets AI. I'm Cory with the story. Prince Harry and six other public figures, including Sir Elton John and Baroness Durin Lawrence, are pushing for big damage awards from the high. Cory and their lawsuit against the publisher of the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday. They accused the company, associated newspapers limited, of using private investigators for illegal tactics like blacking personal details. Paying arguments kicked off on March 27th, with the claimant's lawyer arguing that every allegation holds up strong. He pointed to evidence of unlawful info gathering by investigators, freelance journalists, and even the publisher's own staff, saying the company has, dodged, responsibility, the whole way. The publisher fired back hard, calling their newsroom professional and denying any wrong doing. Their lawyer described the case as a political push from a press reform group and said the key accusations crumbled under witness testimony from journalists who defended their

standard reporting methods. For Prince Harry in particular, the lawyer highlighted his dismay at the tabloids tactics just to chase profits and beat rivals. Around 70% of the claims tie back to four journalists who routinely hired shady help, according to the claimants. The trial before Mr. Justice Nicklin wraps up this Tuesday with a written ruling to come later that could reshape how these papers operate.
