“All the “allegeds” and “allegedlys” in the world wouldn’t change that.” in the world wouldn’t change that.”

actually, all the “allegeds” and “allegedlys” are what MAKE the story “accurate”, or at least not libelous ...

one can pretty much legally get away with publishing ANYTHING if one uses enough “alleged” and “allegedlys”: it’s how the Democrat propaganda media operate ... smearing without TECHNICALLY smearing ...

That’s simply not so.

You cannot print, “People are saying that he sleeps with his sister,” or, “allegedly he stole millions from an anti-child trafficking organization” and except those qualifiers to afford protection against defamation liability.
