Interview 862 – Denis Rancourt Dissects the Tort of Defamation

The common law of defamation turns the basic tenets of jurisprudence on their head, making defendants guilty until proven innocent. Denis Rancourt of UofOWatch.blogspot.ca joins us today to help paint the bigger picture of how defamation arose in the common law, and how it is wielded to clamp down on freedom of expression. We also discuss what the average person can do to help topple this faulty legal principle and the systemically corrupt court system that upholds it.
