They didn’t merely use excerpts for fundraising either. They used them to induce advertisers to quit their sponsorships. That is tantamount to lying, to damage Savage’s livlihood. That has nothing to do with news, or fair use, or discussing news, does it? There has to be damages there. I’m not an expert on fair use, but what Cair did with respect to the pressure on Savage advertisers (not the fundraising) doesn’t seem remotely close to the purpose or activities of FR. Of course, that also isn’t the premise of the lawsuit, so Savage might have to go back a second time with a different suit, if there is anything to what I’ve speculated. The copyright thing does seem spotty. I just want CAIR exposed for what it is.

I like how these foreign born Muzzies are suing everyone. They just got off the banana boat 5-10 years ago and they are suing Americans who go back 100 years and more

Muzzies are so Allah intoxicated they have no sense of proportion. Here's hoping Savage & lawyer do so much discovery on CAIR it leaves them stunned, so stunned they never sue again
