The only way he can win is if he can successfully bring the freedom of

journalist has an agenda.

He's not a journalist. You said he would claim to be an entertainer. Which
is it.

I believe he works for the Washington Times (newspaper)
He also has a blog.

Again, the only winners will be the lawyers.

Lawyers always win. lol


They collect 100% from the defendant and 30-50% from the plaintiff.
That is more than just winning. You can see why torts are so near and
dear to the legal profession.
Even when they lose, they get to deduct all of their expenses from
their taxes.

Then, he can't claim he's an entertainer.

Huh? Lawyers don't collect 100% from anyone. That's nonsense.

Well, expenses are expenses. Not sure what that has to do with anything. If
a plumber tries and fails to fix a busted toilet, should he be prevented
from deducting the cost of the parts?
