Ezra Levant's Statement of Defence in Warman Suit - 'Warman is disreputable'
'I've also pointed out that Warman has issued or threatened
literally dozens of defamation lawsuits over the years -- including some since
he sued me and my co-defendants. Again, how can you go to court claiming that
your reputation was damaged, when you've written -- in your own hand! -- that
your reputation has been devastated again and again and again, both before and
since, by others?
The answer, of course, is that the lawsuit isn't logical, or
serious. It's a nuisance suit. I believe he thought the defendants would each
crumble -- the National Post because they already apologized to him, and me and
the other bloggers because we're not wealthy. I don't think Warman ever
counted on the blogosphere -- and not just the conservative blogosphere, but
everyone who cares about freedom of speech -- chipping in to help us with the
costs of our defence.'
