I wrote in Sept for VANITY FAIR that the Dominion cases weren't layups (no libel action is), but I concluded: "If I got drafted into them, Iβd much rather have Dominionβs arguments." bit.ly/3LBGFBx That's even more true today. This is a disastrous decision for Fox.
I wrote about a libel lawsuit by '64 GOP candidate Barry Goldwater, which Jonathan Peters called "the rare case in which the plaintiff was able to prove that the statements at issue were made with knowledge of their falsity." Eric Schultz washingtonpost.com/history/2023/0β¦
