Don't like Levin all that much, but God bless his attempts to crush them.

I think Sarah is moving forward with this also, but I cannot confirm.

Yeah, let's "crush" those media outlets we don't like. What can possibly go wrong?

The accusation is that MSNBC pundits slandered him, causing some of the recent death threats against Palin and himself.

Yeah, no one has ever won a case against a media outlet.

Now you're on a first name basis with Sarah? Sheesh, that's as bad as Cher.

Anyway, yeah, let's crush that free speech. That's in line with our first amendment.

Hard to sue somebody for telling the truth, well you can bring suit, but win, probably not.

This wouldn't be one of those "frivolous lawsuits" that generally enrage the right, would it?

Free speech isn't crushed unless criminal charges are pressed. I don't think anyone endorses that action. Free speech does not absolve you from civil charges.

Saying the right wing pundits caused the tragedy and death threats resulting from that action will be difficult to defend unless you can prove it's actually true. Civil charges do not require beyond a reasonable doubt evidence.

Say some of the same folks who wish to silence Limbaugh, Hannity, et al (none of whom I listen to, by the way) or repeal that pesky 2nd Amendment.
