Photographer seeks legal advice over Kay Burley ‘clash’

By paulmcnally

Associated Press photographer Kirsty Wigglesworth is reported to be considering legal action against Kay Burley, claiming the Sky News anchor grabbed her by the throat in the press scrum outside Naomi Campbell’s court hearing.

Pictures published in the Mail on Sunday show Burley with a black eye after she was hit in the cheek by a camera. Wigglesworth is shown with bruises on her neck. The photographer has said she is certain it was not her camera that caused Burley’s injury.

Pictures from the press scrum made it into most of Saturday’s papers… except The Times.
