Articles which included Denis O'Brien among 22 men named as the 22 biggest borrowers from Irish banks in 2008 were not a "contrivance" to "blacken" him, the High Court has been told.

The articles published in the Sunday Business Post (SBP) on March 15th 2015 were based on a confidential Price WaterhouseCoopers (PwC) report about the exposure of Irish banks in 2008, former SBP editor Ian Kehoe said.
