... and is awarded $450,000

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/201 ... y-theorist

one of those twats that claims Sandy Hook never happened, CTers in general annoy me, the ones that deny tragedies like Sandy Hook happened take it to the extreme and actually anger me

true to form Fetzer remained a twat to the end -

Fetzer, however, argued that the statements in his book aren’t defamatory “because they’re true”


Leonard Pozner who sued Fetzer however maintained his dignity -

Pozner went on say that the case was not about free speech rights.

“Mr Fetzer has the right to believe that Sandy Hook never happened,” he said. “He has the right to express his ignorance.”

The award, he added, “further illustrates the difference between the right of people like Mr Fetzer to be wrong and the right of victims like myself and my child to be free from defamation, free from harassment and free from the intentional infliction of terror”.

Hopefully that other cunt, Alex Jones will have to pay up. He's made a fortune with this.

Oh Alex is fucked. Four defamation lawsuits. I don't mind a tasty conspiracy theory now and again but he crossed a line.

Oh they maintain it alright. Truth really doesn’t matter to these people and they have no conscience about who they harm with their lies. Their ‘truth’ is all that matters to them. It’s a form of insanity.

Exposing these insidious, conscienceless liars is satisfying.
Do you think it’s an addiction for them?
They are relentless.

Normally I’d say free speech is important but when people like this guy are just intent on spreading lies and do actual harm to the victims of a crime you just know these ‘haters’ have to be exposed. They really don’t care about the truth and just need to be seen as know alls.

Fake news and fake propaganda - those are the other growth industries that plague modern times. Cancers in overdrive.
And increasingly you've got to get past paywalls to access the truth.

Fake news by fake people who are rarely held to account because they just spit out more bile and wear people down.
This one got his just deserts. Although there will still be some who claim what he said was true. :roll:

Oh it's not actual 'fake news' as such, it's erm … ''alternative facts''. Kelly Anne Conway said so. :whistle:
Back in the day top politicians hired spin doctors to tweak the truth slightly to make it more palatable.
Now we have dirty great pinocchio porkies constantly pouring out on a conveyor belt. No tweaking even required cos they are outright lies right from the off. :pmsl:
