Court told Denis O'Brien was wrongly included in newspaper article's 'gang of 22'

Businessman Denis O’Brien was wrongly included in newspaper articles among a “gang” of 22 people alleged held responsible in the articles for bringing down the Irish economy in 2008, the High Court has been told.

Unlike the situation in the film The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, there was no distinction drawn in the Sunday Business Post articles between Mr O’Brien and the other individuals described as the “gang of 22”, Luán Ó Braonáin SC said.
