In reply to the discussion: New York Times accused of 'sanewashing' Trump post with report on dumping 'brown liquid' [View all]Buddyzbuddy
(2,585 posts)27. But a lawyer would not draw that conclusion, it's an assumption.
I'm not defending the NYT article. It's just a theory based on observation. If you don't want to get sued then don't write anything except exactly what is said, done or shown. That's from a layman. The Felon loves to put lawyers he's already paying to work. He knows the reaction he'll get before he's outrageous. He counts on it.
He knows what it is, we know what it is, the NYT knows what it is. But, in a courtroom when the NYT is being sued, the Felon's lawyers are going to say, "prove it".

Don't read it. David Parkman might good substitute for you. Personally, believe readers of NYT know what's going on

Brown sewage would have been a more accurate and equally polite term as "liquid'
