Winter told jurors that journalists 'poisoned the well of justice', that the Channel 4 documentary was 'very one-sided' per the judge's direction, and that Brand's extensive but lawful sex life should not be conflated with the allegations; he argued the six complainants were 'thoroughly contaminated by the programme'.
