SDNY COURTHOUSE,
April 28 – Devin Nunes sued
NBCUniversal Media, LLC for
things Rachel Maddow said on
her show.
On April 28, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge P.
Kevin Castel held a brief
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it, and live tweeted
it, here
The complaint
quotes Maddow that "Andriy
Derkach is sanctioned by the
US government as a Russian
agent... Congressman Nunes
accepted a package from him."
Then it says
"Plaintiff did NOT accept a
package from Derkach."
Judge Castel: I
understand that the parties
have their respective
positions, I respect that. But
it not a sign of weakness to
sit down with a mediator and
try to resolve issues. What I
can do in this case is I can
get you before a
court-appointed
mediator...
Defense (NBC) -
Yes your Honor we'd be
prepared to do that.
[Mediation
will be more difficult for
Inner City Press to cover -
but we'll try]
The case is Nunes
v. NBCUniversal Media, LLC,
22-cv-1633 (Castel)
