The main factor with this case is omission of the whole true situation. Jones did not invent this theory. Before he picked it up and covered it the theory was already on the internet world wide. All he did was repeat what had already gone viral. Now they are trying to put the whole load on Jones for it. It is something they would never do to CNN, MSNBC, WaPO or any other MSM because of “freedom of the press”.

“Jones did not invent this theory”

A very good point. He was covering it and commenting on it (even if he was wrong this is surely allowed) .

I thought the bar for defamation was meant to be pretty high.

He also didn’t name any of the parents.

Sayl Alinsky: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)”
