“If it is, Cruz is going to be the new owner of National Enquirer.”
This affair thing is one of the most epic case of freepers misreading a story I’ve ever seen.
The story doesn’t say that the enquirer independently acquired any evidence of Cruz having affairs.
The story doesn’t say the enquirer independently confirmed any aspect of others investigations of Cruz or “his women”.
The story doesn’t even say that Cruz had affairs!
The story cites a single unnamed source that claims 5 women are being investigated. That’s it!
The Enquirer is in NO legal danger.
They simply reported a rumor, as a rumor!
If nothing comes of the story, they can simply say their source lied to them.
I’m tempted to write a vanity on this.
I’d suggest you write it, but it will be ignored.
But your point is spot on, and also makes the weakness of the denials from the various involved parties very, very suspect.
I pointed out the actual NE words in a post yesterday.
Something like:
“..have discovered reports that Cruz may have been...”
“..sources say that...”
“...the shocking claims...”
And then went on to say that with all of this evidence against him, I’m surprised that he didn’t drop out of the race this morning and Heidi divorced him.
I got two replies agreeing on how it was all over for “Lying Ted”.
I used to use the /S on my posts. It is more interesting not to right now!
