Mark Steyn notes:

Perhaps the best sign is the shifting media narrative. A few weeks back, yours truly and a couple of other skeptics were dismissed by The Toronto Star’s David Olive as “Black retainers”. But, as Chris Selley noted the other day, it’s not just Steyn and Peter Worthington “calling this thing for the defence any more”. Fleet Street seems to be so stunned by the prospect of a Black acquittal that they’ve more or less abandoned all coverage of the trial. But, across the water in Dublin, The Irish Independent’s Ruth Dudley Edwards says: “I can’t be the only one beginning to wonder if there’s anything more to this case than spite and envy.”
