Dunno about the US, but in Germany everyone who appeared in the media
has the right to give a counterstatement, and the newspaper/radio
station/tv station are required to publish it uncensored. The reader may
then decide for himself what to think of all this. Depending on how this
is handled in the US and how Monty feels about it, he could make such a
counterstatement. I think this is way better than flamewars on /. or
stupid "let's sue 'em all!" attitudes.
