I’ve been doing some marketing consultancy chats with quite a lot of creatives who are taking their work to Ed Fringe. One of the worrying things is that they are getting emails from producers/programmers asking them to meet them at hotels and bars to discuss their shows

Judge then repeated both allegations uncritically to the jury, as if fact.
