I have been watching with interest the gradual unfolding of the =
defamation issues this forum is trying to deal with.   The flat out =
admissiion in Mike's apology  has clearly been motivated by consultation =
with an Attorney, or a discussion with someone  who has consulted with =
an Attorney, familiar with Defamation  Law.  I really do not believe =
what Mike has said has anyhing to do with his character or true =
beliefs..  My belief is that the persons Mike should be publically =
apologiing to are the persons who have been the most hurt by his =
remarks, that is, the person he defamed and the owner of the Canslim =
website. The apology should be made to the person defamed for obvious =
reasons.  On the other hand , the apology should be made to the owner of =
the website. because, due to his review of the subject matter before it =
is published  he has opened himself up  to a libel suit, if brought by =
the person who has been defamed.   I hope this entire matter will soon =
be brought to a close, that is, by by putting a stop to this nonsense, =
since I, for one, do not want to get involved in litigation, even though =
I am a retired Attorney who could get involved with a litigtion mattter =
without great personal cost. =20
