Professor Alan Dershowitz, the famous civil liberties attorney, will be allowed to go forward in his $300 million lawsuit against the Compromised News Network (CNN) and move to depositions.
The shysters for CNN--excluding Jeffrey Toobin who was not on hand and thus unavailable--filed a motion to dismiss in November but a judge in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida didn't agree with their argument and said Dershowitz can proceed.
The lawsuit states that CNN unfairly edited comments from Dershowitz about whether former President Trump could have been impeached if he committed an illegal act that he believed was in the public interest.
Dershowitz says in the lawsuit that garbage network repeated played that clip over and over in order to make him appear as if he "had lost his mind."
Following the airing of that clip over and over again, the hosts, together with their panel guests, including CNN employees and paid commentators, exploded into a one-sided and false narrative that Professor Dershowitz believes and argued that as long as the President believes his reelection is in the public interest, that he could do anything at all – including illegal acts – and be immune from impeachment. The very notion of that was preposterous and foolish on its face, and that was the point: to falsely paint Professor Dershowitz as a constitutional scholar and intellectual who had lost his mind.CNN's attorneys argued that the lawsuit should be dismissed based on the fair reporting privilege of the press.
Dershowitz explained on Newsmax that the fair reporting privilege didn't extend to CNN's actions exactly because they unfairly misrepresented what he said.
"They took out the words 'lawful and illegal' in order, deliberately, to convey the impression that I thought the president could engage in illegal and unlawful conduct and still not be impeached, exactly the opposite of what I said," said Dershowitz.
In an email to Law & Crime, Dershowitz [who had to be smiling when he wrote it] said he was looking forward to "deposing the commentators and heads of CNN and of the truth coming out."
If you have any stock in that network, it's time to sell.
