Ray Epps’ Lawyer Demands Retraction and On-Air Apology from Tucker

Sounds like a precursor to a defamation suit. I guess Tucker will claim journalism, or free speech. Or better yet since truth is an absolute defense, maybe he’ll do like Fox is currently doing with Dominion and presenting evidence to support their statements as being factually true.

Oh. Yeah, that’s not at all what they doing with Dominion or Smartmatic. They’ve instead but forth no evidence to support the truthfulness of their statements.

Better yet, maybe again Tucker’s lawyers will say “he’s a known liar, and no one should take anything he says as fact or truthful”. At least that’ll be interesting.
... Did Epps' lawyer take the "Revolver challenge"?
Obviously not.

I'll be sure to clue Tucker onto those facts shown there.
No worrys.

... As we've mentioned so many times - you can get the
full "Ray Epps story" in TWO parts - over on the
Revolver website... Go take the "Revolver Challenge"
and read and see the clips.

THEN come back and let us know IF you agree or
disagree with things.

... What surely could be more fair than that?

From the OP: "Sounds like a precursor to a defamation suit."

Really? Since when exactly did it become "defamatory" to suggest someone might be working for the FBI? Does the OP believe that's a damaging smear to a person's reputation and career? And if so, wouldn't that mean the FBI were the "bad guys" on Jan. 6th... which, in turn, means the pro-Trump protesters were the "good guys"?

Is that what our resident legal expert 1blackman1 is trying to tell us when he suggests Ray Epps' lawyer may have an actionable basis to sue for defamation?

Without getting into unnecessary verbiage. Defamation is a false statement regarding an individual stated in a way to suggest that it is factual which brings harm (by reputation or pecuniary loss) to an individual.

Stating that he was some kind of FBI mole that ginned up folks to commit crimes definitely qualifies as defamation. If it’s true, which is an absolute defense, the Tucker will assert that as being so and provide proof beyond conspiracy theories and conjecture.

Y'ah know, I have never bothered to find out who this Epps guy is because in the same sentence tuck pads is mentioned.

Maybe that might change in the future.

We shall see how far being in the press as an excuse for stating lies that there’s no proof to support goes. I’m pretty sure the SC ruled that it’s not absolute. In fact, something that you know to be true, failed to do any due diligence in investigating or you have serious doubt of the truth of are specific exceptions to the freedom of the press protection. I’ve not read Times v Sullivan since Con Law but I’m pretty sure that’s about right.

We might get some interesting takes on how much one can hide behind that protection in the upcoming cases.
