One might as well claim that an apple may look, smell, feel and taste as a apple, but it is not necessarily so. By finding that it cannot be libel to call the film fraudulent, the court has effectively ruled that the film cannot be legally defended as an incontravertable fact. If you followed the case, the evidence presented by France2 was laughable and shifting. Nonething seen by the court fitted the presented story. Effectively, yes, we can go out and say that it is a fraud and here is the evidence. And no one can sue us and claim that we are lying.

The court in no way decided the authenticity of the film. It simply clarified that calling it a fake is not libelous towards the news stations that aired it.
