The Gateway Pundit, Infamous Conspiracy Blog, Declares Bankruptcy After Suit From Election WorkersJim Hoft published a message on the website that read, “TGP Communications, the parent company of The Gateway Pundit, recently made the decision to seek protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the Southern District of Florida as a result of the progressive liberal lawfare attacks against our media outlet.”Georgia election workers Ruby Freeman and her daughter sued the Gateway Pundit in 2021, alleging that Jim and Joe Hoft, behind the conspiracy theory site engaged in “a campaign of lies” that “instigated a deluge of intimidation, harassment, and threats that has forced them to change their phone numbers, delete their online accounts, and fear for their physical safety.”The Gateway Pundit saw its traffic soar surrounding the 2020 presidential election as it published story after story parroting then-President Donald Trump’s roundly debunked allegations of election fraud that led to the Jan. 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. In January 0f 2020, the Gateway Pundit had some 1.7 million unique readers. In January of this year, that number had dropped some 54 percent to 813,000 users, according to Comscore data.Hoft’s statement added, “This is not an admission of fault or culpability. This is a common tool for reorganization and to consolidate litigation when attacks are coming from all sides. It allows TGP to consolidate this lawfare in one court for ultimate resolution.”https://www.mediaite.com/news/the-gateway-pundit-infamous-conspiracy-blog-declares-bankruptcy-after-suit-from-election-workers/
>>1289710So basically they'll continue to operate as normal and not pay the ridiculous lawsuits? Same as Alex Jones?
The trolls lost their favorite hub.Just checked into their site to see how they're taking it."Thanks Jim! I will be sending a check in the mail today. And my prayers to Christ Jesus on you and your staff's behalf.""Counter sue for damages, including punitive for frivolous claims and emotional distress.""This is basically the only outlet I trust"BAH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!They had the audacity to sign off with "Despite the radical left's efforts to silence The Gateway Pundit through censorship, de-platforming, de-banking, cut-off from advertisers, and other financial strategies, we will not be deterred from our mission of remaining fearless and being one of the most trusted independent media outlets in America today."__Calling Gateway Pundit "trusted independent media" is like calling Jeffrey Dahmer a celebrity chef.
>>1289711>continue to operate as normalthat requires $ for servers etc
>>1289713You think Alex Jones continues having a show without paying for infrastructure?Bankruptcy is literally designed to allow for this.
>question elections>get sued by the fedEvery single fucking time.
>>1289726>Slander people to push Trump's lies >Get punished for it.I'M OUTRAGED!
In honor of one of /pol/'s go to propaganda sites going under. >Number of threads /pol/ppets used Gateway Pundit as their source and it was deleted>84
>>1289727>criticize the government>UHHHH THIS IS SLANDER?lmaololYeah
>>1289726>the fedThey were sued by the workers they personally libeled.And fortunately bankruptcy doesn't protect you from the consequences of maliciously and baselessly ruining someone's reputation, so their victims will still be paid.
>>1289741>They were sued by the workers they personally libeled.You mean the ones acting on behalf of the government? Sort of like.. a state actor?
>>1289739>Slander specific people to ruin their lives for the ego of sore loser Trump>Forced to pay damagesCope
>>1289743your lies per minute are going thru the roof anon
>>1289747I don't think anybody disagrees that the state is corrupt, anon.
>>1289743How dare you question Glorious Leader
>>1289743>a state actor?Emphasis on state, as in not the fed. Also, the state isn't a party to the lawsuit. Governments are legally distinct from their employees as entities. Also also, they were fucking volunteers and are no longer actors for the state.Fuck's sake, this is like thinking your ex-cop neighbor suing you for hitting their mailbox is the feds cracking down on you. Stop being a fuckwit. You don't have to be like this.
>>1289762>Emphasis on state, as in not the fed.Do you believe the 1st amendment doesn't apply to state governments? Is that why you've made this irrelevant distinction?
>>1289762>Emphasis on state, as in not the fed. States have constitutions too anon.>Governments are legally distinct from their employees as entities. The government can, and frequently does, use quasi-private entities to attack private citizens. This way they can circumvent the US constitution. This is how Dominion was allowed to sue fox news into the ground.If you think you can criticize the government and get away with it in the modern day, you are dead fucking wrong.
>>1289766boo hoo traitor faggot
>>1289750This is why Trump is being prosecuted for his corruption.
>>1289766>The government can, and frequently does, use quasi-private entities to attack private citizens. This way they can circumvent the US constitution.True, but not in this case.Those 2 woman were exchanging candy bars not ballots. Rudy with his ARBD, needs to plead mental incompetence
>>1289729To be fair for a while it seemed like they were advertising here.
>>1289750I disagree
>>1289852I wouldn't be shocked if this were the case. No way any of the Trump shit isn't part of a shilling operation.
