  1. The first thing you do when you find yourself in a hole is you stop digging. B&N is all in on the affirmative defense. Oughta be a short trial ’cause B&N can stipulate to the plaintiff’s facts. “Yeah, Your Honor, we said them things about the plaintiff, and then we doubled down and said them again! In print! And we’s gonna prove ’em true. In a he-said-she-said match. By a preponderance of the evidence.”

    B&N is now a penny stock.

    Were I the B&N lawyer, I would require MUF. And lots of it ’cause Riggion ain’t gonna keep his mouth shut.

    I would pop some corn, but I think this is getting fishy enough to break out the tartar sauce … 😉
