"I think the essence of the CNN story was to show how the media, particulary the Murdoch owned media or (conservative right wing media rode the story. I also believe that the CNN story implied the involvement of someone either affiliated with or connected to Murdoch's empire for setting it all in motion, ala "dirty tricks". It was positioned in the CNN story with the headline "Anatomy of a Smear". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ So, it is OK for CNN to IMPLY (which some view as a smear), but not FOX? |

The suit was for trade mark infringement and libel. The trade mark infringement was dismissed outright and the libel was dismissed because Franken went on record and stated the book was NOT truth but satire. The Judge acknowledged that if Franken claimed the books contents were serious facts, the Judge would have allowed the Libel suit to be heard.
The free speech position was a brilliant argument by Franken's attorney. That is what anyone wants their attorney to do - win. Even if it is misdirection. |
