Defamation is not a crime, but it is a "tort" (a civil wrong, rather than a criminal wrong) as well the public has a right to criticize the people who govern them, so the least protection from defamation is given to public officials - he may fall into this class. As well since this is a tort case this is about money no matter what Mr. Gilmore may claim
If anything I do see the possibility of "Actual malice" as you can't make un-vetted claims about people
The lawsuit reads like the script of a horrible DNC fundraiser -

Since he was not a public figure they do not have to prove malice, all they have to prove is reckless rearguard of the truth, The additional requirement of malice is required only for public figures. He was a junior staffer not in the public eye and not accused of wrongdoing.
The suit is about punishing vile POS's like those being sued for acting like parasites at the expense of others, Money is just the only weapon available
The facts read like a DNC fundraiser. They made up a story wholesale and ran with it trashing the character of an innocent person to get ratings and for proganda purposes. Even Fox admitted that there was not valid basis for the story

1stSgt Nelson Kerr - As long as the website didn't research or write the story, but merely posts a story supplied by an independent third party, they have no liability under law for the story's contents -- whether it's true or patently false. Imagine all the lawsuits that Google and Facebook would face if they had an obligation to quash misinformation.

in this case they wrote thier own articles so they are likely toast. if thy had just reposted they would be relatively safe but that is not the case..

Well that makes for a stronger case - a couple of things about the news I do not like - third party sources - like Comey and his leaks there was a go between- as well sources that are either off the record or confidential. I get people want to protect themselves but it makes vetting stories nearly impossible - and then there are the flat out lies or out of context reporting - click bait. To me it seems the MSM has become more entertainment than news or useful information.

Scratching my head over why someone with such obvious LEFT-WING PROGRESSIVE BIAS feels it necessary to keep posting tripe in the CONSERVATIVE discussion.
