Jason "Fake News" Salzman:
A lawyer who owns a newspaper "is serious about" suing someone.
Another lawyer says someone could be liable if someone else could prove something.
This is not "Fake News", it is not news.
Does this mean Jason Salzman is still not able to land a job as a journalist because does not recognize what news is?
I hope so.
You pathetic piece of right wing shit. You are not worthy to lick the soles of Jasons' shoes. You are a seriously worthless troll and nothing more. You are the perfect expression of useless.
Some day you may take a look in the mirror and come to the realization that the gift of life and freedom was wasted on you. Maybe you will realize how truly ugly are your heart and mind and ask for forgiveness for the evil you are spreading in the world. I hope so.
Why so cranky, Andy? Is you Putin check late arriving?
"requisite knowledge" assumes the guy is not a complete moran and has an IQ somewhere above room temperature. As with AC, I highly doubt both conditions.
And for AC to try to impugn Jason is the highest insult he's thrown around here. Why CPols continues to let him shit on their blog daily and hourly – and all the rest of us commenters here – is beyond me. Use some discretion, Jason, and kick his worthless ass out of here.
Uhhn, Zappy, Jason has no power to kick people off, nor does he want it.
whoever does should. If the proprietors prefer a Trump-like discussion forum over a Progressive one, then they should state that clearly.
Though I will say the cowardice of having a “political” blog that mostly criticizes the politics of Republicans but leaves Democrats tetherless is a failure in itself and is one reason D’s get their asses kicked so often.
Zappy, if you relish the notion of democrats being kicked around, go hang out with the Peakies for a while. Maybe you'll appreciate us more then.
Trollies gonna troll, Zap. And it does bring on the clicks, so Pols tolerates it. If /when it gets to the point that the trollies are taking over, and/ or all discussion is centered around whatever new outrage the trollies post, then we have a problem, and Pols are certainly wise enough to intervene.
Until then, they let us police our own posts.
I find that I have very little patience for responding to the usual troller provocations; hence, I blank them out, mostly. I already have a full-time job, and responding to every piece of regurgitated Breitbart/Drudge/Fox pap would be another fulltime job.
But good on Duke for defending Jason S against AC's nonsense. Jason is certainly one of the last real investigative journalists standing, and deserves mad respect for that.
Voyageur and Bane defending the Establishment:
If it pays your bills and buys your kid new sneakers, that's fine.
If it's a front where you pretend to be for the Middle Class and for Progressive and Liberal solutions, and where you pretend to be an unforgiving Democrat, then please cut the bullshit.
If you sleep well at night knowing you’re doing everything you can for the cause, then God help us all……………
Oh, go soak your head in a toilet bowl, zappy.
As we've said before, we believe that everyone has the right to make an ass out of themselves online.
Thank you. I try to exercise that right every day…
I, for one, appreciate the opportunity.
Yes, Duke, but some of us are better at that art than others. Frankly, you suck at making an ass of yourself. As MJ will attest, I am a master of the craft.
Pfft. Amateurs.
My wife claims that my mutant power is that I could piss off a statue.
Hence, your username, I'm guessing..
That's because you're a smart fellow.
Now, that is a talent!
Thanks, V. From one master to another..
This is very sad, CORA needs serious reform and this is a total distraction from that. The whole thing seems a bit petty and childish on both sides.
Is attention finite? CORA does need reform, but libeling the media simply because they aren't complete slaves to your party deserves some attention, too.
I am sorry, nate_, but I disagree. It is a very big deal because it is yet another instance where the truth is devalued by the liar it is exposing.
The only fake news involving the Daily Sentinel I can ever recall was the decades old decision to print Gary Harmons' opinion as fact. That circumstance was entrenched long before Jay Seaton ever hit town.
Printing anything by Gary Harmon or Rick Wagner is a mistake I wish the Sentinel could stop making.
Truly…but at least they still print Bill Grants' words and opinion. It is about the only thing of interest in that rag.
Occasionally, they forget themselves and print something the Chamber of Commerce or COGA didn't approve ahead of time, that can be amusing.
The best local columnist the Sentinel runs is Jim Spehar.
It seems like a bad idea. A newspaper would probably be considered a public figure, so there would have to be some evidence of actual malice. Not an impossible reach, but pretty hard to prove.
In the meantime in order to show damages they'd have to open up the paper's circulation figures and newspapers hate that.
