"The Society of Media Lawyers" (UK) is a Truly Malicious Anti-Media Lobby Which Helps Rich/Abusive Americans and Hostile Countries Attack Actual Media Workers in the UK

posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 17, 2026

Blackmail and extortion hub, lobbying our right-leaning (Big Business-sponsored) politicians through a misleadingly named "Society of Media Lawyers", which is little but a coalition of pro-SLAPP for-profit firms that make millions by proudly SLAPPing YouTubers, influential bloggers, low- or high-profile critics, and large publishers (typically behind the scenes in letters that demand secrecy to avoid facing some unsaid consequences). They typically source their money from aboard to besiege domestic actors (like honest journalists or independent outlets that document suppressed beats/topics).

Jonathan Ross/The Society of Media Lawyers: You cannot criticise anything

What is "The Society of Media Lawyers"? It's not what it sounds like.

Some of them are not even lawyers!

They profit from "dirty money" of very dirty people by playing dirty or even breaking/bending the rules while attacking critics of theirs (to the point where they receive death threats) - they're in effect like a Mafia. The public must know about this, not just our more well-meaning politicians who pursue anti-SLAPP laws.

Hired by Serial Strangler for Microsoft (US) to SLAPP me; Hired by corrupt EPO officials (Germany) to SLAPP me; Everyone at Brett Wilson LLP is in it; Helped Brett Wilson LLP badmouth me in public

They're all in this together, almost colluding to keep the law patently unjust and to keep the corrupt safe from criticism. The image (an annotated screenshot) shown above comes from yesterday's links and today's - illuminating a profound issue of "hired guns" (the "SLAPP industry") working for the corrupt and actual criminals (from other countries) against people inside the UK. Funnily enough I've encountered all the above - it's a closely-connected cabal of hired guns based in the UK but working against the UK. It's a matter of national security at this point.

This practice of SLAPP is not law, this is working for alleged criminals to attack exposers, e.g. from years ago: (Qatar)

Brett Wilson's silence speaks volumes. exposing UK law firm Brett Wilson colluded with my harassers to pervert the course of justice, with deliberate lies in a draft legal letter.

22nd June 2018, Law firm, Brett Wilson LLP representing Qatar Airways, Head of Communication and Head of Al Khor International School, defended Qatar Airways of any wrongdoing, gross negligence and lack of due diligence, and had no right to contact Qatar Airways for their support is a legal case, as I had no legal case for defamation as statute of limitation had passed, this is a deliberate lie by Brett Wilson as they are fully aware that as they specialise in defamation law, that a judge could extend timeframe due not being aware of the malicious online content, Brett Wilson not mentioning in the drafted legal letter their client after 3 years of harassment and lies online, doxxed me by posting family house address on Twitter with my full name, endangering the lies of my wife and children with malicious intent and legal letter did not mention their client fabricated having a court order against me, when it was struck out, and after sending a complaint email 16th May 2018 with link to evidence of his complicity in the harassment, Head of AKIS tried to claim Al Khor International School and owners QatarGas knew nothing of the website www.support4justice.com that exposed harassment and wanted it taken down, before Head of AKIS employers can see it, clearly Brett Wilson LLP using coercion to silence and cover-up harassment, fabricated this narrative with their clients, so that AKIS school could ignore harassment complaint email. and not offer a full investigation into complaint, the evidence points to AKIS and owners QatarGas instructing it's Head of AKIS to silence the person who made a complaint against him. with Brett Wilson LLP instructing me to stop making complaints in the drafted legal letter.

The above is old and speaks of a currently flailing, financially weak firm (shrinking and selling assets away, as it needs money and is already deep in debt). It is connected (through the coalition) to the same firm that helped the EPO attack me repeatedly, as explained here several time - albeit in hindsight - in recent months [1, 2].

The "SLAPP industry" relies on people being too timid (afraid) to speak about it - who's in it, what they do etc. The secrecy stops now.

The public must know. Only then can the public do something concrete about it.
