As much as I revile James O’Keefe…

Streisand Effect in play here.

Also, how can he be sued for saying: “I’m not saying you’re a sex offender at all.”

As many folks have already noted this lawsuit is likely only going to bite Moore on the ass:

  • There’s no way SHO’s lawyers didn’t have him and everyone else they featured on the show sign waivers.

  • Satire is a protected form of speech.

  • The discovery into Moore is a can of worms I really don’t think he wants opened.

Moore’s ship has sunk. At this depth the only people still supporting him are likely furious with SBC, and Moore probably has to sue to save face. Plus this gives Moore another chance to fleece the sheep, this may actually be a good thing for him.

LOL at “Butthurt in the first degree”.

This can’t be the first time Sacha Baron Cohen has been sued. I seriously doubt he’s going to be impressed by legal threats.

good point but I do wonder about the intricacies of that defence when the set up is quite obvious there obviously was some planning and a premeditated insinuation was achieved.

Moore (4:04): “I have never had an accusation of such things.”
