Students slapped with Chelsy story ban

By Rachael

Student journalists at University of Leeds have been banned from writing stories about Prince Harry’s girlfriend and fellow Leeds student Chelsy Davy, reports the Daily Mirror.

The paper was banned from reporting on a Facebook prank about Davy, and then told they were banned from reporting any stories on her. A source told the Mirror: “We heard about the prank but they banned us writing about it. Then they banned any mention of Chelsy. A student paper should have free speech.”
