Actually, I think she first needs to aggressively go after the State Run Media organizations who are reporting on these “bloggers” and using them as sources. I don’t believe that reporting “gossip” as legitimate news and saying “we didn’t start it” is a plausible legal defense. If the main news organizations are hit hard for this type of “reporting”, their blogger sources will dry up.
The threshold for liable and slander are much lower for a private citizen than they are for a public figure.
She’ll still be a public figure
But she can earn and raise more cash from those of us who support her and fight back at the pack of wolves masquerading as journalists
I hope she’s got some great, committed lawyers
ALL of us need to go after the media. Bombard the corporation board, sponsors, and the FCC with thousands of complaints, then issue press releases and get your local news affiliates to cover the story.
