Over legal slander.
Because of an opinion piece (not reporting) in March of 2019.
You know, that you've reached peak democracy, when the mightiest man in the world has to sue the Times to get his public image corrected.
And does so during an election campaign.
Journalism now gets hit with more of a chilling effect, and in the future will not report, what in the Muller report was named as direct connections between Russia and the Trump election campaign team - just shut up, if you only have hearsay, and no proof - even in a case as prominent as this one, don't host people that might feed you what is alleged to have happened between the lines.
Oh, and torture Assange.
