Besides, how can he go after someone who posted something on a web site, if he doesn't go after Mr. Schindler who made the allegations on the national media? How could he reasonably argue that such posts caused damages, but not the Mr. Schindler?

He may go after the press outlets involved at a time of his choosing.

And as for going after Mr. Schindler, he can even argue that the familial bond outweighs the direct damage caused. In other words, he doesn't have to play your game, and he can look noble in so doing.

Bottom line: if you don't know something is a fact, don't state it as such, and you'll save yourself a lot of grief.
