Nunes' lawsuit against Maddow and MSNBC moves forward

[bodecea]

So much for free speech.

You know the fascist Right wants to shut up the free press.

Alleged slander and libel

Nunes has a history of filing frivolous lawsuits alleging slander and libel.

And if a judge decides a lawsuit is frivolous, he can impose penalties.

 

[bodecea]

Speech has consequences.

And the Truth has con-sequences for lying MAGAts.

Boy, I'm glad that's not going on, that would be bad.

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

People love to use the threat and nuisance of these lawsuits to prevent people from speaking freely about them.

It’s absolutely a disrespect of the freedom of speech.

Mr. Maddows show is 24/7 hate republicans. The only reason she has a show is the dumb leftists continue to believe her.

It’s absolutely a disrespect of the freedom of speech.

This does not involve Congress - it has absolutely NOTHING to do with "free speech".

Unless she accused him of a vile crime, won't this lawsuit fail?

That’s a lie.

I hope you are sued for saying it.

It's one thing to report the truth, it's another to falsely defame and maliciously slander a person.
See:

What Are Defamation of Character and Slander?

Defamation of character is when one party makes untrue statements that may be malicious or accusatory about another person. In order for the action to be identified as defamation of character, the actions must harm or be intended to harm another person.

It would be laughable in the extreme if a talking head on TV sued an anonymous citizen over speech. The judge would throw it out as frivolous and stick them with the court costs.

You are free to deceive but there are consequences.....

 

[Marener]

Consequences shouldn’t be having to pay lawyers to defend yourself from frivolous and meritless lawsuits.

That’s abuse of the law.

Funny. Nunes tried it at least twice.

LOL THIS is rich coming from a liberal that supports shouting down speakers he disagrees with and threatening violence to cancel their speeches.

LOL remind me when you complained about shouting down conservative speakers ot causing so much violence they were prevented from speaking?

Like when the right said that Paul Pelosi was attacked by his lover?

If its frivolous than they have nothing to worry about... you can't lie and smear people without paying a price....

Perhaps I should sue you for it.

Lawyers aren’t free, moron. There’s a cost to defending lawsuits like these. That’s the point.

America must silence the biased media! Law suits are only one effective way of doing that. As the problem is escalated by the media, other effective methods will be found, as was demonstrated in two previous fascist regimes.

Kari must speak out now, regardless of the fact that her election remains stolen. She must encourage action needed to win it back from the Demonrats.
