A DOC Thread.
A breakdown of the X v. Media Matters lawsuit filled a short time ago.
Take a look:
Here’s a link to the 15 page filing.
Pg. 1. The General allegation. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
Page 5. Venue could be challenged by Media Matters as I believe X corp still maintains its corporate headquarters and its brain trust operations center in California.
Expect Media Matters to challenge Venue and ask for a move to California.
Note the defamation mention.
Here are two of the three causes of action.
1. Interference with a Contract. Referring to the ad buy contracts between X and Apple, Disney, et al.
The Third and last Cause of Action (COA) Interference with Prospective Economic advantage.
The first two causes of action concern past and current damages ($). This COA concerns future damages based on the conduct of Media Matters. This could be an astronomical $ number. More than enough to Bankrupt Media Matters.
Of note, X did not name anyone (David Brock) personally.
🥺
The demand? Basically take down the MM article and pay for damages.
Keep in mind many others are joining in and suing MM today too including the state of Texas based on post by Trump ally Attorney General Ken Paxton, Tim Pool and potentially several other states.
Wheeeee! 😂
