Hillary Clinton Says Fox News 'Attacks' Defame Her, Hints She Could Sue

Clinton suggested on Thursday that the network's recent reports on what she has called a "fake scandal" pushed by former President Donald Trump were getting close to "actual malice"—a legal standard that is required for public figures to file libel lawsuits. Clinton said that conservative attacks on her were meant to distract from Trump's recent difficulties.

"We can't get distracted, whether it's by the new culture war nonsense or some right-wing lie on Fox or Facebook," Clinton said during a speech at the New York State Democratic Convention. "They've been coming after me again lately, in case you might have noticed. It's funny, the more trouble Trump gets into, the wilder the charges and conspiracy theories about me seem to get."

"Fox leads the charge with accusations against me, counting on their audience to fall for it again," she added. "And as an aside, they're getting awfully close to actual malice in their attacks. But as I said, don't get distracted."

Fox and other conservative outlets have recently reported on claims that a court filing from Special Counsel John Durham showed that Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign illegally spied on Trump.

Yes. She’ll never sue.

She’s never been anything but mouth and words.

(At least her ‘husband’ possessed a modicum of political savvy.)
