If you aren’t currently being sued by Congressman Devin Nunes (R-CA) yet you might be starting to feel like you’ve been left out of the club. Both CNN and the Daily Beast have been put on notice that the House Intelligence Committee’s ranking member will be summoning them to court over incorrect reporting on his dealings with Rudy Giuliani associate Lev Parnas related to Ukraine. One of the stories from CNN ran only yesterday, but Nunes informed Breitbart that lawsuits were on the way and could be hitting both outlets’ doorsteps shortly after Thanksgiving.
“These demonstrably false and scandalous stories published by the Daily Beast and CNN are the perfect example of defamation and reckless disregard for the truth,” Nunes told Breitbart News late Friday night. “Some political operative offered these fake stories to at least five different media outlets before finding someone irresponsible enough to publish them. I look forward to prosecuting these cases, including the media outlets, as well as the sources of their fake stories, to the fullest extent of the law. I intend to hold the Daily Beast and CNN accountable for their actions. They will find themselves in court soon after Thanksgiving.”
