In the first place, I am not sure that I see drug companies having any 'standing' in a legal case against media companies. But more to the point, such a legal case puts much pressure on media companies to clean up their abuse of free speech - at NO cost for them.
Secondly, your resignation is typical Republican politics - don't fight legal abuses, just surrender and lose the battle. Goodbye, Republic...
My take is to "play smart" like our President does.
He calculates every move he makes and then proceeds. His track record is incredible.
Is it as fast as we would like? Is everything he does perfect? No. But he's still the best President we have ever had or likely ever will have.
As for what I do, I move from story to story to story.
Hopefully, some get traction. That's either happening or there are a lot of coincidences.
In the past I have covered stories for years and may do the same in the future,so no, I hardly ever give up.
