FTA:
The president’s personal attorney tells NBCU brass that legal proceedings could be pursued if there’s no retraction or apology for stating that “Russian oligarchs” co-signed loans to Trump.

Donald Trump is ratcheting up his war with the media, as if such thing was conceivable. On Wednesday, his personal attorney Charles Harder threatened NBCUniversal with a defamation suit over what was broadcast the previous night on MSNBC’s The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell. A missive sent to NBCU headquarters, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, also addresses a related tweet.

According to Harder’s demand letter, “The Program and Tweet make the false and defamatory statements that ‘Russian oligarchs’ co-signed loans provided to Mr. Trump by Deutsche Bank, and described these ‘co-signers’ as ‘Russian billionaires close to Vladimir Putin.’”

IIRC in some of Trump’s earliest primary campaign speeches ( probably pre-TelePrompTer) he talked about the abuse involved in the very stringent rules for defamation of character lawsuits when a famous person was defamed. Maybe he will begin to address that. I hope so.

The propaganda media lies and then Weasel-words a non-apology “apology,” but seldom issues a retraction or admission of lying.
