Marian Price Sues Disney Over 'Say Nothing'

Marian Price, a veteran republican, is suing Disney+ over the depiction of her involvement in the murder of Jean McConville in the series 'Say Nothing'. The series, based on a book by Patrick Radden Keefe, portrays Price as participating in the 1972 murder, an allegation she and her legal team claim is baseless and defamatory. Price, already known for her role in the IRA's London bombing campaign in 1973, denies any involvement in McConville's murder, whose body was found in 2003 after being one of the 'disappeared' during The Troubles. Her lawyers argue that the series' depiction is not only unfounded but harmful, urging legal action to hold Disney accountable. Disney has been criticized for allegedly prioritizing streaming success over factual accuracy by including such contentious scenes. Price’s legal representation emphasizes that the accusations are not supported by evidence from related historical criminal proceedings.
