On the subject of #Oprah #Gayle and @CBSThisMorning attacking deceased black men while promoting unproven accuser agendas against living black men...

In Sept. Justin Fairfox filed a $400 million defamation suit against CBS, after Gayle interviewed 2 accusers w/ unproven claims. ImageImageImageImage
Fairfox's complaint alleges the accusers were politically motivated based on consensual encounters in their early-20s.

He notes that both accusers are disinterested in an independent law enforcement investigation into the allegations and one made similar claims against athlete. Image
Fairfox says CBS aired these allegations in 2019 despite having "ample opportunity and resources to investigate the veracity of their stories. CBS also had information...that both allegations had not been corroborated by any independent investigation." Image
Fairfox explains how CBS has been involved in its own #MeToo scandals w/ high-ranking staff.

He states how Gayle King and CBS "intentionally failed to investigate leads—some provided directly to CBS by Fairfax prior to airing—that would've played accusations in serious doubt." Image
Despite Fairfox urging CBS to contact sources that would disprove the accusations or at least offer balance to them, CBS refused.

He suggests CBS is motivated to support #MeToo accusers to help cover their own internal scandals and conflicts. ImageImage
Fairfox describes examples of CBS and Gayle King's lack of any substantive questioning of the accusers to assess their credibility. This included Gayle side-stepping any serious details of the allegations including dates or locations or an eyewitness who supports Fairfox's side. Image
As with other Gayle attack pieces (including her blind acceptance & promo of proven lies by Wade and James, who are currently seeking millions from MJ's estate), everyone at CBS including Gayle made comments "accepting as fact and vouching for the credibility of the [accusers.]" Image
Publicly, Fairfox denied the accusations, stating: "I demand a full investigation into these unsubstantiated & false allegations. Such an investigation will confirm my account because I am telling the truth."

His life & career was destroyed on mere allegations fueled by Gayle. Image
CBS defends itself by claiming the opposite and that it was not "actual malice" & citing Anti-SLAPP.

They say they did do a thorough investigation before airing & suggest Fairfox is the one who is politically motivated and erroneous.

CBS filed a motion to dismiss (pending).
My expertise in the Robson/Safechuck scandal confirms Gayle & CBS did NOT properly investigate nor unbiasedly interview those men to promote their claims & LN.

With that baseline to go by, I would never trust CBS or Gayle's claims of impartial and researched topics ever again.
Fairfox maintains his innocence and has demanded an impartial and thorough investigation into the serious claims by the women.

He encourages an examination of the facts and details by all parties to reach a conclusion. Yet he's endured trial by media due largely to Gayle/CBS. Image
It is reprehensible that accusations are enough to destroy one's reputation forever.

As recently as this past week, agenda-driven political outlets are sure to mention the accusations in headline-grabbing format, even when the story has nothing to do with the accusations at all. Image
You can read the entire complaint from Fairfox below, containing many more details and circumstances and the reasons he claims CBS and Gayle have defamed him.
