Lawyers for TMZ argued that Tremaine had nothing to do with the video and that any testimony given would be based on “rumor and conjecture.” “TMZ makes such promises of confidentiality, from time to time, so that it may publish information in the public interest, and it relies on the journalist’s privilege protecting the identity of confidential sources to do so.”

I'm actually putting myself kind of in the target of TMZ, a very litigious organization," Tremaine said.

Tobin said Azcarate should quash a subpoena, issued on Tuesday, that would force Tremaine to testify in the case.

He said a part that showed Heard “sniggering” at the end of the video was “not present” in the video he received. “The only way to obtain copyright over media would be if we shot it ourselves, if it was sent to the tip line source-verified that it was from the original copyright owner and then either purchased from that person or given to us and then the third option would be if it was directly given to us by the copyright holder, like a direct source,” Tremaine said. Tremaine said the version of the video he received was shorter than the version played in court. “In that link was the video of Johnny Depp smashing the cabinets,” Tremaine said. He told the court that the assignment that day had come from a news producer and that meant “they had verified that tip and it was credible”. “[It took time] if it was media such as photos or videos that would need to be extensively verified to ensure that the person sending it is the copyright holder and that we would have the legal ability to air it and distribute it,” Tremaine said.

"She was going to sort of stop and turn towards the camera to display the bruise on the right side of her face, the alleged bruise." “There was a bit at the beginning that was played here in which Ms. Heard is seemingly sort of setting up the camera and getting into position. He said that the ending of the video which was played in court was different to the one that came in via TMZ’s email tip line in 2016. He said: “When I had clicked the direct link that we received and watched the video in its entirety it was much shorter than the video we had received, the video that’s been played in this trial. The request was then denied because TMZ is not a party to the case and its arguments have no bearing on the defamation claims. It is understood Tremaine was called to the stand to tell the court about what exactly the video showed and where it came from. I’ll give you f***ing crazy.” The court papers state that TMZ was given the video by a confidential source and that the company had promised that source they would not disclose their name. Depp responded: “Did something happen to you this morning? You wanna see crazy?
