Russell Brand takes the stand at his rape and sexual assault trial
Russell Brand denied all the allegations against him as he took the stand in his trial on rape and sexual assault charges on Wednesday.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on Russell Brand arriving at court for the latest day of his trial and frame it around the rape and sexual assault charges. Channel 4 News uniquely quotes Brand outside Southwark Crown Court saying it is the day for “truth and justice,” while The Guardian US uniquely says he could not find anyone to give evidence on his behalf and lists the charges in more detail.
