Take the money and run...

Charity begins at home:
Another day another libel case, In general I think you should never sue newspapers as it only encourages them. That being said, one aspect that always puzzles me is that after the wronged celeb gets the cash they have to make a show of giving it to charity.
Now there are loads of over paid stars in world but if they are libelled by the News of World and get a pay out I'm more than happy for them to keep the cash.
The paper was in the wrong it's lost out justice has been done. I know it's to show it's not about the money but I don't care keep the cash, if the paper had won it gets to keep it's profits from telling tales about people. Most papers in Britain do little for charity apart from saving the odd donkey so keep the cash give it charity if you like (but don't tell anyone which is the best policy in general) if not spend it on an island holiday in Norway, paps like hanging out in sunny places with cheap drinks generally.
