Trump has been involved in 4,000+ lawsuits in his lifetime – including a $10 billion suit filed against the BBC in December. Media freedom scholars say the goal isn’t to win in court — it’s to intimidate critics and weaken the press’s ability to hold him accountable. https://theconversation.com/trump-lawsuits-seek-to-muzzle-media-posing-serious-threat-to-free-press-272850

Trump lawsuits seek to muzzle media, posing serious threat to free press

The president has sued multiple media companies. He may care less about winning in court than intimidating news outlets, suggest two media scholars.

Do we REALLY know what a person's True motives are for Anything? NO ~ one may speculate/offer an opinion, Their perspective.

IMO ~ just because someone's in the public eye, #newsreporters have NO jurisdiction to dissect Anyone &/or slant facts toward Their personal ideologies.

⚖Leave LEGALITIES such as #crimesandmisdemeanors to the #LegalSystem of a respective #government ; where a person &/or organization's conduct is questioned ~ NOT, in the illusive Misuse of #ThePress

I find it interesting that one of the few remaining post offices in the Melbourne CBD is embedded in the law court. Two pre-IT industries keeping each other in business.

At least Auspost is doing their best to change with the times. The legal system still thinks that it’s the 1900s and stamps and signatures still need wet ink. Don’t you dare try and use a scanned copy of a doc.
