Libel payout by Unification Church?
Because UC lost heavily, so it (Unification Church) had had to pay the Daily Mail £750,000?
Context:
In 1981, the Daily Mail ran an investigation into the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unification_Church, nicknamed the Moonies, and branded them "the church that breaks up families" in the article, which accused them of brainwashing converts. The Unification Church, which always denied brainwashing, sued for libel and lost heavily. A jury awarded the Mail a record-breaking £750,000—then the biggest libel payout. In 1983 the paper won a special http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Press_Awards for a "relentless campaign against the malignant practices of the Unification Church."
On 16 July 1993 the Mail ran the headline "Abortion hope after 'gay genes' finding";[64] this headline has been widely criticised in subsequent years, for example as "perhaps the most infamous and disturbing headline of all" (of headlines from tabloid newspapers commenting on the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xq28 gene).[65]
