“That is why they would never publish that story because I would easily be able to sue them for libel under current law.”

Ok, how about if the media spent years and decades fostering class hatred, degenerate life-styles, failed economic systems, racial hatred, ethnic strife, one party over the other, outright lies, and big wasteful government at all levels, in the news, non-news and educational media, could you sue them for that under “current law”?

No, and that is exactly the sort of political arguments that I don’t want the media to be able to sued on. That’s because I don’t want a government court making a decision about which political ideas or causes are true and which ones are false. Realize that any court which can try to muffle the press’s support of BLM can also try to muzzle FR and the prolife movement.
