At 10:21 p.m., you wrote: ?Whether they like it or not, members of Congress, including Hastert, are under investigation,? on federal official said tonight.? This statement is false, and your republication of it after actual knowledge of its falsity constitutes libel and defamation. ABC News? continued publication of this false information, after having actual knowledge of its falsity, evidences a specific and malicious intent to injure and damage Speaker Hastert?s reputation by continued repetition of a known falsehood. We will take any and all actions necessary to rectify the harm ABC has caused and to hold those at ABC responsible for their conduct. Please advise regarding who will accept service of process to remedy this international falsehood. Very truly yours, J. Randolph Evans Stefan C. Passantino Counsel to Speaker J. Dennis Hastert |
