Our English contributors might have more details, but that incident would have been as familiar, if not more so, to the English viewers, for whom I suppose the video was originally intended.
Yes, you're right, it was focused at British viewers, Drew, because of the BBC law case. Non British viewers probably don;t understand the significance of that law suit. The BBC are charged with collecting a tax that is levied on every household in the UK that has a television. IT doesn't have to be on. It doesn't have to even be working. But every household has to pay a levy, called the "License Fee" that is currently £150.00 a year. The BBC administers and polices the collection of this fee and they are ferocious about collecting it and will take anyone to court who tries to avoid it. The penalty, I believe, is about £1000.00.
That's the background. The guy who made the documentary refused to pay his fee because of BBC broadcast a report saying that WTC 7 had collapsed 20 minuted before it happened. The BBC took him to court. The Judge found in the defendant's favour. The Judge also notably refused to comment on the defendant asking if he had to start paying the Licence Fee again. So he's not paying it and probably never will have to ever again.
It's a bid really deal and confirms in law - without actually saying it - two things: 1) the court found that the collapse of WTC 7 was a result of a conspiracy and 2) the BBC was part of that conspiracy and cannot therefore collect the License Fee from the defendant for the reasons cited by the defendant (the BBC was not upholding the law).
Surprising that others in great and growing numbers have not used the same defense to not pay their licence fee; also that such a Court decision hasn't caused the BBC to be hauled into Court to defend their actions in the cover-up and perhaps complicity in the events of 911. Hats off, however, to the Judge involved......my own experience [in the USA] is that most of them [not all] simply buy into and feel part of 'the establishment' and 'the system' and would rarely have the ethical basis and judicial insight to rule in such a manner.
