| 66. What does this mean, in practical terms? |
|
First, does bringing Stephens Media into it mean that DU is not stuck drawing any potential legal award from the increasingly overdrawn resources of their Righthaven front corp, but instead gets to draw winnings directly from the parent corp?
Second, does this specific admission mean that they are giving DU the win on this lawsuit, in the hopes of not having to cough up more documents that if seen in light of day will harm their various associated corps even more than this single loss?
