Media Matters Finally get Punished

Media Matters is a left-wing group founded by the Clintons and others to take on what they called the vast right-wing conspiracy. Now they are being bankrupted by legal bills from their ill-founded accusations.

Free Beacon reports:

When Elon Musk sued Media Matters in 2023, the law firm of Democratic super-lawyer Marc Elias swooped in to represent the liberal media group. It made little headway against the lawsuit before submitting millions of dollars in legal bills, prompting Media Matters officials to lash out at the firm as they faced financial ruin, according to a new report. According to the New York Times, Elias Law Group originally represented Media Matters against Musk’s lawsuit, which accused the group of manipulating X posts to falsely link the social media platform to white nationalists and anti-Semites, part of what Musk alleged was "a ploy to drive advertisers from the platform and destroy X Corp." The litigation and other legal fights with the attorneys general of several red states have left Media Matters with $15 million in legal costs, forcing the Democratic media juggernaut to consider laying off staff, filing bankruptcy, or shutting down altogether, the Times reported. ...

It’s the latest black eye for Elias, who is perhaps best known for his role in spearheading the infamous Steele dossier on behalf of the Hillary Clinton campaign in 2016.

I believe Media Matters once attacked me for commenting on how Non-Christians voted overwhelmingly Democrat in the 2012 election.
