Melania Trump has started legal action against the Daily Mail and other outlets for what she claims is a defamatory article about her past.

Charles Harder, an attorney for Trump, said in an email that the legal action goes beyond just the Daily Mail and is not limited to the United Kingdom, where the Daily Mail is headquartered.

"Mrs. Trump has placed several news organizations on notice of her legal claims against them, including Daily Mail among others, for making false and defamatory statements about her supposedly having been an escort in the 1990s," Harder said in an email. "All such statements are 100% false, highly damaging to her reputation, and personally hurtful. She understands that news media have certain leeway in a presidential campaign, but outright lying about her in this way exceeds all bounds of appropriate news reporting and human decency."

Harder was in the news recently for representing Hulk Hogan in his successful bid to sue Gawker, bankrolled by Silicon Valley investor and Donald Trump supporter Peter Thiel, who spoke at the Republican National Convention in July.

The article in question was published last week by the Daily Mail and questions Trump's biography and history as as mode

No no....

She was paid vast sums of money to have dinner with these older clients and be sparkling conversation.

That does not make her an escort in what most people's eyes think of when they hear that term. What went on (or off) after dessert is anyone's guess..... Maybe it was the dessert itself on her.

The suit comes in the wake of Trump launching an offensive against many media outlets, banning some such as Politico and the Washington Post from covering his rallies as well as calling for stricter libel laws in the US. He also banned the Guardian from attending an event in Scotland after Trump took offence when reporter Ewen MacAskill questioned the Republican nominee about his allegedly toxic politics.

In a statement to the Guardian, Charles Harder, an attorney at the firm of Harder, Miller and Abrams which is representing Trump, said: This law firm is litigation counsel for Melania Trump. Mrs Trump has placed several news organizations on notice of her legal claims against them, including Daily Mail among others, for making false and defamatory statements about her supposedly having been an escort in the 1990s. All such statements are 100% false, highly damaging to her reputation, and personally hurtful. She understands that news media have certain leeway in a presidential campaign, but outright lying about her in this way exceeds all bounds of appropriate news reporting and human decency.

Don's a genius!!!!!!

Well, if Harder/Thiel can bankrupt Gawker, we can only hope and pray that The Daily Fail can be bankrupt once and for all.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth! :devil:

Wasn't that cleared up already? I'm sure The Donald announced that she'll releaase all her papers which will show that everything was done in accordance with the law. Or has that announcement been as hollow as that of the unblievable results of the Obama birth certificate investigators or that of the soon to occur release of his tax returns? Lot of hot air there but usually not much more.

Shady deal her immigration all those years back... Was it more relaxed back then?

Also did she or did she not work on a tourist visa..... All comes back to bite ... If she's a US citizen now it can't be revoked so not much can be done on that front.

No, it was not. I know as I went through the system myself around that time.
