Max Mosley, one of the two architects of modern Formula One racing, has won a judgment for invasion of privacy in British court against a tabloid newspaper that accurately accused him of having a Nazi-themed orgy with hookers. Mosley was awarded a record £60,000 compensation after winning his privacy action against the News of the World, which had accused the 68-year-old son of 1930s Fascist leader Sir Oswald Mosley of taking part in a “sick Nazi orgy” with five prostitutes.

His defense was that he liked to do this, in private, and it was no one’s business.

Yeah, right:

Mr. Justice Eady, who sat straight-faced through a revelation that sessions sometimes involved a man dressed in a judge’s gown, heard that [the hooker’s] wardrobe included a nurse’s outfit, a maid’s outfit, a schoolgirl outfit, a peasant girl outfit and an army girl outfit. It is ironic that Mosley’s action for invasion of privacy had the effect of letting daylight in on what [another hooker] called “private experiences in private places.”

That’s not the only irony. Now Mosley’s private — and rather embarrassing — peccadillos have been exposed for the whole world to see. The tabloids are having a field day!
