Quack legal action fails

Over at the Quackometer blog, a report that a quack's legal action against the Guardian over an article by Ben Goldacre has failed.  Goldacre himself writes about it in the Bad Science blog (and presumably in today's Guardian).

This libel action has cost the quack, Matthias Rath, £500k for the Guardian's legal bills, and probably the same again for his own costs.  Whether it will silence him and his business, I don't know.

Next stop, Simon Singh squashes the chiropractors?
