“he should appeal it anyway.”

I’d say it would be heroic for him to appeal the conviction because I get the sense that they are holding the full sentence in abeyance as a threat against such an appeal. The cretin Statists want this conviction to stay in place simply to acquire the precedent.

OTOH, there is also a sinister reason for him not to appeal and then point to the threat as the reason he dares not — as cover. The more RINOs (SKUNCs — statists knowingly undermining the nation’s constitution — is really a more accurate acronym) that D’Sousa is friendly with, the greater the chances he’d never appeal.

In the final analysis, it is a blemish on our society for having allowed such racketeering to have become so firmly established. There were ways to have prevented it from having gotten this far, but I fear the real patriots it would have taken to get it done are all dead by now.

Exactly what I was thinking, else it would be Steyn in vain.

He does get time on Fox News. He might then think it's about him. OTOH, he knows he has box office and might decide he doesn't need it, knowing that the case brings its own PR.

See tag line.
