Would a Jury have found for the News of the World?

The case of Max Mosley v The News of the World was heard by a judge sitting solo. The Judge found for Mosley.

The case could have been heard by judge and jury.

Perhaps the Screws, in defeat, feel that a jury might have come to another conclusion.

The Guardian, not a natural home for supporters of powerful motor-racing moguls conducted a poll among its readers, worded simply:

Max Mosley won his case against the News of the World today. The trial was held without a jury, so the decision rested solely with the judge, Mr Justice Eady. If there had been a jury do you think the outcome would have been the same?

The result:

Yes: 75.1%

No: 24.9%
