This is a bullshit lawsuit. First off, the language used in it sounds like boilerplate Left wing radical chatter. Referring to Alt-Right and white nationalists is hinky. Secondly the dude suing did own the car at some point. His is attached to it whether he likes it or not. Reporting on that may or may not be uncomfortable for him, but it isn't illegal.
@Suppressed@Frank CannonSo if I once owned a car that subsequently passed through several other owners and many years later was used in the commission of a murder, some internet warrior and creep like Charles C. Johnson identifies me as the murder and publishes personal information about me - you don't think I'd sue?
GotNews and Gateway Pundit are notorious for doing this. They are not news org. or journalists but more glorified bloggers who have often doxx innocent people.
Not that that relieves the LSM from irresponsible reporting either.
But that doesn't make Johnson and Jim Hoft off the hook either.
As Suppressed pointed out, an innocent and completely unrelated person with a similar name as Nikolas Cruz but different spelling, different middle name and different DOB was all over the WorldWideInternets, here and on other sites being identified as the shooter.
I don't know where that first got reported, could have been an MSM outlet, but days after it was correctly reported (within the first hour), it's still being passed around today as fact.
As for the sites being sued, they are not inaccurately labeled as "far-right" anymore than it would be incorrect to label HuffingtonPost and Mother Jones as "far-left".
