1. It is almost impossible for a public figure to win a defamation lawsuit.

2. Truth is an aboslute defense to defamation. That means that SP and Todd can get deposed about their marital life. Glenn Rice would also be deposed.

Filing a defamation suit would be the worst thing the Palins could do.

Did Glen Rice claim he had a relationship or one night stand with Palin? No he said no such thing

Plus you didn’t even read what was said... RH doesn’t want it’s lawyers and their correspondence exposed, they will most likely end it before it even got off of the ground

Are you assuming they have something to hide? What if they do not and there is no proof of such allegations? Who winds up looking the fool then?

Not if everything is a lie. The Palins know exactly what they are doing. The scum have to open up all their emails and leak of no sources. It is going to look really stupid when the only sources you have are anti-Palin bloggers that make stuff up.

I’m not an attorney, but I’ve been a court officer for many years. I don’t believe Random House can use discovery to substantiate their accusations. The merits of the case are based on what they knew at the time of publication and their source. You can’t “source” the book at a later date by deposing the Palin family. I doubt they could even ask any questions about the allegations.

Actually the emails show malice. Pure intent to harm. They are done for.

If the palin’s haven't done anything then those depositions will crush RH. Even if they have actual issues, some form of proof will need to be proffered, cell phone records etc. About the only thing we know right now is Levi's mom was a meth head.

I hope they do settle, with a large $ payment, a public apology and the pulping of the book and a transfer of the ownership of the author's books(all of them) to the palin’s.
