Truth Is An Affirmative Defense . . . But There Is No Truth To Be Found In Naomi Klein's Arguments

Charmingly, Naomi Klein has decided that it is a wise career move to defame the great Milton Friedman. And when I write "libel and slander," I choose my words carefully and deliberately and I mean to state through my own charge that while truth is an affirmative defense to the charge of defamation, that defense will not help Naomi Klein.
No. It will not help even one little bit.
I am all for competing viewpoints. Honestly. But Naomi Klein's thing-resembling-a-book ought to be laughed out of polite and educated society without even a nanosecond's hesitation.
But if I remember correctly from torts you can't slander the dead. It's been a while, I could be wrong. Milton is my hero and I hate to see those lies in print.
