Hon. Justice John Dixon said only a "substantial sum in damages could convince the public that Ms Wilson is not a dishonest person."
"Unless substantial damages are awarded there is a real risk that the public will not be convinced of the seriousness of the defamation, but will rather wrongly conclude that the articles were trivial or not that serious," he added.
