Montgomery, Al— Judge Roy Moore, candidate for the United States Senate in the upcoming 2020 election, and his attorneys Melissa Isaak and Larry Klayman took yet another action to stop “Fake News.”
Today, a suit has been filed in the Federal District Court for the Northern District of Alabama against the Washington Examiner, its owner, publisher, editors, and writers for false and malicious statements made to disparage, intimidate, and libel the character, reputation, and integrity of Judge Roy Moore.
Judge Moore made the following statement:
“Like the people of Alabama, I am sick and tired of ‘fake news’ by media organizations which pretend to print the truth but in reality, are politically and philosophically motivated to distort the true facts for their own ends. Unlike some who choose to suffer in silence, I have decided to fight back!”
Judge Moore has previously filed civil actions against Priorities USA (which had previously funded Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election), Senate Majority PAC (SMP), Bully Pulpit Interactive, and Waterfront Strategies, Case No. 4:19-cv-01855-CLM, also filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. In those cases, Judge Moore sued for damages for defamation and for false political advertisements of Hwy 31, a super PAC created by Washington D.C. defendants to help Doug Jones in the 2017 U.S. Senate special election in Alabama. |
