But of course, n one but an ass-hole would have that firm's stationary or send that letter, so it would fall a bit flat....

(9,090 posts)even tho it should be there between graf and hawker after being named a few times incidentally. other talk radio-connected operatives with partial redactions in glossary include stone, corsi, credico - not social media geniuses
the org 'free speech' petitioned FCC for investigation of COVID disinformation and quoted limbaugh. republican FCC said NO
media and dem leadrship has totally missed the boat in blaming hannity/fox, who basically merely rechew what limbaugh elevates to widespread acceptability through unchallenged repetition. if putin wanted to influence us politics he's figure out how to feed limbaugh, not hannity

(45,806 posts)You can bet, their 12 page letter to the Times required several reviews & rewrites before all deemed it OK to send. the response required very limited time, 1 review, by the client. and poof! it's of! Capable lawyers don't need 12 pages to get their message across..
