On November 10th, the National Post posted on its Full Comment Web blog a column entitled “Ezra Levant: Canada’s free speech enemies to lay Remembrance Day wreath,” which included a link to another Web site that suggested lawyer and human rights activist Richard Warman had posted an offensive item on the Freedomsite website about Senator Anne Cools. The National Post has no evidence to support this allegation against Mr. Warman and it hereby retracts any suggestion that Mr. Warman manufactured any statement about Senator Cools. The National Post apologizes for any embarrassment this has caused Mr. Warman.
When will these guys learn?
PS. Please note once again that linking to defamatory material can itself be defamatory.
Damn, you're up early! :)
ReplyDeleteI am actually off today, but I'm used to getting up at 5:30 am every day, like clockwork.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like they've retracted their retraction. My sources say that Warman is going ahead and suing for libel now.
