3. It was defamation of character on a catastrophic, national level.
This will be interesting to watch.

4. It'll take years
And probably ultimately settled out of court.

6. And in the meantime

Breitbart's name will be out in public and he will be known as a pathological liar.

Everything he has done and said will be under a microscope.

8. If Breitbart was smart he would settle out of court

Sherrod has him dead to rights on the defamation of character charge.

And his damages would be great because the judge can add $$$ to the settlement because he attacked her professionally, which is considered a big no-no.

10. Yes! Yes ! Yes!
Regardless of the outcome, I applaud her decision. It is important that people refuse to accept these things. Way to go Shirley!

11. That's how the Klan was broken...
stripping away the money that supports these idiots is just about the only way to break them down.

Damn Hillboro Baptist Cult needs to be taken out of the picture as well...they settled w/those nuts...pathetic.

16. I wonder what sort of legal team she got for this...
I would hope it's some wolverines and she gets full party, and covert administration, backing to slam dunk this asshole.

Breitbart will make all the first amendment arguments, but we remember how Carol Burnett fried the Enquirer for a deliberate and knowing lie.

24. she has been through so much in her life
a little speck of shit like Breitbart will be nothing for her.

good for her!

I hope this sets precedents for others who have been afraid, to do the same.

It's a good day.
