BALTIMORE PAPER PICKS UP MUCHNICK DEFAMATION SUIT COVERAGE

Good, honest coverage by Baltimore's City Newspaper concerning the Muchnick defamation suit.  Muchnick calls this a "hit piece."  Judge for yourself.

Also, a telling admission was disclosed on failed writer Irvin Muchnick's Tuesday post:

"It is fair to say that I was “ordered” to do certain things, in the same sense that the plaintiff was “ordered” to dismiss the lawsuit in return."

Nice spin by Muchnick, but the fact remains that Muchnick was the one who tried to settle the suit, not the other way around.  If you ask me, he got off lightly being "ordered" to take down his inflammatory accusations against a minor.  DON'T FORGET, THE MINOR'S PARENTS HAVE AN OPTION TO RE-FILE THE DEFAMATION SUIT.

What kind of credibility can a writer have who was forced to settle a defamation and invasion of privacy lawsuit against a minor?  Any future Muchnick employer should be given an opportunity to answer that question.
