Add Trump v. Fake News[edit]CNN, Washinton post and New Youk Times — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:1FA0:44A8:407C:15A2:C0C5:75F7:B10A (talk) 19:59, 12 March 2020 (UTC) |
Is cease-and-desist a "lawsuit"; if so, add?[edit]
CNN’s parent company sent a cease-and-desist letter accusing the Trump campaign of misusing the network’s news coverage in a way that is “false, misleading and deceptive.” WarnerMedia claims a new ad from the Trump re-election campaign titled, “American Comeback,” takes a segment about the threat of the coronavirus on CNN out of context. The letter claims the Trump campaign ad “purposely and deceptively edits the clip” to imply that Wolf Blitzer and Dr. Sanjay Gupta were praising Trump’s January travel ban for saving millions of American lives, “when in fact Mr. Blitzer and Dr. Gupta were discussing recently implemented social distancing guidelines and stay-at-home orders issued by state and local governments.” The letter “hereby demands” that the campaign stop airing the ad, which “has been distorted in such a way as to mislead the public.”[1][2]

- No, it is not a lawsuit. We are not going to add copyright idiocracy. I will also remind you that the president of United States can violate any copyright he wants to that is permited by law (more accurately everything he post becomes public domain, all copyright is destroyed, see http://www.genericfairuse.com/2017/04/20/president-donald-trump-and-ip/). But we can add Trump letter about CNN poll.109.252.171.205 (talk) 14:24, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Plaintiff or defendant?[edit]
@Tuckerlieberman: Here, you added text about some lawsuit related to the January 6 Capitol storming attempt, under the subheading Lawsuits around the January 6, 2021, attack. This would have been quite logical, if this had been the main heading. However, it isn't, so you added the stuff under the general section heading Trump as plaintiff. Was this on purpose, or by mistake?
Now, if it was on purpose: In the cases themselves, Trump definitely would be a defendant, not a plaintiff. However, it is true that in the attempt to stop this suit Trump was "the appellant", not "the appelee". In your opinion, does this turn Trump to "the plaintiff as far as the appeal is considered?" In that case, there may be more text about various appeals which should be moved from the Trump as defendant to the plaintiff section. Else, IMHO, your addition should be moved down to the defendant section; perhaps to the Lawsuits around 2020 election fraud claims subsection, or to a new one?

- Hi! @JoergenB Thanks for noticing that. Yes, it was probably just my error. I don't even remember when I made this edit. Indeed I was probably focused on the subheading "Lawsuits around Trump's financial and tax information" and somehow overlooked the bigger "Trump as plaintiff" heading.
- It seems you've put thought into it already, so please go ahead and rearrange or correct it as you see fit. Thanks! Sorry for my error. Tuckerlieberman (talk) 17:22, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- OK@Tuckerlieberman; I moved it to the Lawsuits around 2020 election fraud claims subsection. JoergenB (talk) 17:53, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- @JoergenB Thanks for fixing it. Tuckerlieberman (talk) 18:25, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
