Bad news for F1 journalist - 05 May 2006

F1 journalist Tom Rubython, editor of Business F1 magazine, has reportedly copped a $381,000 bill in a London High Court ruling in favour of former Jaguar boss Tony Purnell.

In March, Purnell won a libel action after Business F1 alleged that the Jag principal had once bribed a journalist to write 'puff pieces' about the team.

John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.

OK that wasn't very funny. Seriously what is that supposed to mean.
