@Teri_Kanefield forwarded onto a bunch of #policyWonk fans of the #KnowledgeFight podcast who have got really into stuff relating to defamation cases (especially repeated defamations for the purposes of driving up traffic).

At the moment we are picking through bits released in #AlexJones and #FreeSpeechSystems (aka #InfoWars ) bankruptcy proceedings.

Thanks for the nice explainers on this case.
