Quotation of the Day for October 14, 2016"The essence of a libel claim, of course, is the protection of one's reputation. Mr. Trump has bragged about his non-consensual sexual touching of women. He has bragged about intruding on beauty contestants in their dressing rooms. He acquiesced to a radio host's request to discuss Mr. Trump's own daughter as a "piece of ass." Multiple women not mentioned in our article have publicly come forward to report on Mr. Trump's unwanted advances. Nothing in our article has had the slightest effect on the reputation that Mr. Trump, through his own words and actions, has already created for himself." - David McCraw, New York Times general counsel, from an October 13, 2016 letter to Marc Kasowitz, the lawyer for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. Kasowitz, had complained about the New York Times printing further accounts of Trump's sexual predation.
