In reply to the discussion: Apology Not Accepted: Fluke Says Limbaugh’s Statement Doesn’t ‘Change Anything’ [View all]Jack Rabbit
(45,984 posts)11. I don't think there's that much of a risk
From your link:
Limbaugh did some research into Flukes life and cast doubt on Flukes testimony before Congress, insinuating without presenting any reason why that Flukes testimony was fabricated. In this new narrative, first advanced by conservative blogs, Fluke is perhaps not a slut, but instead the pawn of a radical leftist conspiracy to infiltrate Georgetown to force the school to provide birth control coverage to students . . . .
As another poster said, only dittoheads are going to swallow that nonsense. I don't believe Ms. Fluke has become such an overnight public personality that she can't sue the bastard for slander.

Rush and Clear Channel should both be sued for millions in punative damages, as well as each radio

She is a class act. Bravo to her for her choice of words to respond to Rush's non-apology.
