Jeremy Vine recently shared an update with his Twitter followers regarding a man who had libelled him. The man had made false claims that Vine was the BBC star who was at the center of allegations in The Sun.
The man had agreed to pay out for the false claims, but Vine asked him to donate the sum to charity instead. The charity chosen was the MND Association, a charity that is committed to care, research and campaigning for those people living with or affected by motor neurone disease.
Vine posted a screenshot of a message that the man wrote, which was an apology and an acknowledgement that the false claim he made about Vine was "untrue". He also said he was "sincerely and unreservedly apologising" for the defamatory statement.
Vine's followers praised him for his decision to ask the man to donate the money to charity, with one person commenting that it was "important" and another saying that some "good was coming out of it".
It is yet another example of Jeremy Vine using his platform for good, and a reminder to be careful of the information we share and the accuracy of the claims we make.
