A Virginia gun-rights group is suing Katie Couric and the producers of the documentary “Under the Gun” for $12 million in defamation over an interview that was revealed to have been deceptively edited.
The Virginia Citizens Defense League (VCDL) and two gun-rights activists featured in the film, Daniel Hawes and Patricia Webb, are suing Ms. Couric, who produced the documentary and led the interview in question, as well as director Stephanie Soechtig, Atlas Films and Epix, the film’s distributor.
The suit filed in federal court Tuesday, obtained by BearingArms.com, claimed the producers of the film “intentionally manipulated” footage to make it look like members of the VCDL were stumped when asked about gun background checks.
The lawsuit seeks compensatory damages of $12 million and punitive damages of $350,000 per plaintiff, as well as an injunction against further distribution of the edited footage.

This would be a huge win if the lawsuit is successful to warn other anti-2nd Amendment zealots to BACK OFF or pay up!
Do I need to lay in a supply of popcorn?

Good. Go for the jugular (legally speaking) and do not back down!
No compromises, no settling.
You should of already of been well-stocked :-)
I hope they bankrupt Couric.
Excellent.
As a bonus, we taxpayers won’t be footing the bill to defend the deception.
Great, your organization was lied about and slandered. I hope for a large award!
THIS is how you fight the left......not curled up in a fetal position.
Typo -- it's actually "documentary" that should be quoted.
Can people volunteer to be on the jury?
Make it so!
Oh, I would LOVE to see a BIG hit to that little twit’s pocketbook!
You know, we Conservatives REALLY need to use the courts to hammer home and DEFEND ourselves; the LefTards do it as naturally as breathing!
I don’t know why we don’t; do you?
YOU; OH hell no.
Your probably a bible thumpin, gun totin, Paleocon, knuckle dragger like me.
Their lawyers would sniff us out in an instant, “excused for cause”, the end.
You have to live in Virginia and be a registered democrat :-)
LOL, no doubt!
Most of the leftards are backed by big money organizations like Sierra Club, Peta, Green Peace, etc.
If not big money organizations, then big sugar daddies like Soros, Bill Gates, Tom Steyer, Michael Bloomberg, and the list goes on.
If a Conservative speaks up and gets sued by a lib, we are on our own. Most of us don’t have deep pockets and can’t afford the court costs.
They will never pay a dime!
Another OJ, Hillary Clinton justice verdict on the horizon.
They're relatively fast and some good rulings.
