Rachel Maddow, MSNBC sued for defamation
wnd.com
excerpt:
A lawsuit seeking in excess of $50 million has been prepared against MSNBC and its talk-show entertainer Rachel Maddow over statements she made about a Minnesota-based ministry.
[...]
Despite the very clear disclaimer by Dean on his ministries website and elsewhere regarding the false accusation that he was calling for the execution of homosexuals, according to the announcement, "MSNBC's Rachel Maddow and others seized on and accused Dean on her show of supporting the killing of homosexuals, as is the practice in some radical Islamic countries. This seriously has harmed Dean and the ministry, who pride themselves on respect and love for all people."
The ministry announcement said, "In an interview earlier this year, MSNBC's president Phil Griffin admitted that the network, to boost its ratings, caters to the so-called 'progressive left.' This explains the malicious attacks on Bradlee Dean and his ministry, which are being used to harm the presidential campaign of Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, who is a conservative Christian."

I'm outraged by Liberals who spread defamatory and slanderous lies without suffering legal repercussions. This lawsuit is a step in the right direction, but it needs to be for far more than $50 million.
I like the idea of tying up Liberals in an endless stream of litigation in court, but it needs to go much further, to the extent of ruining them financially.
I would love to see a non-profit group that forms a coalition of conservative lawyers who network together to closely study and microscopically evaluate all statements made by left-wing mediots and politicians day in and day out. I would donate money to such a noble cause.
When the hypothetical team identifies slanderous and defaming liberal statements as false, they should be ready to pounce in civil court and ruin the bastards financially! |
