Try as you might, you cannot underestimate Alan Dershowitz. https://twitter.com/elivalley/status/1290342953475596288">https://twitter.com/elivalley...
He claims that having a character specifically state he was giving his opinion was an admission of guilt. Ok.
Here& #39;s the CBS response which, delightfully, takes this opportunity to use the threat to advertise for The Good Fight and mock Dershowitz for being an incompetent attorney who received a massage at Jeffery Epstein& #39;s home.
After pointing out that Dershowitz admitted to receiving the massage, CBS points out how hard it is to sue because a character on a show says something mean about you that is indisputably an opinion, especially when a bunch of newspapers agree:
Dershowitz calls himself an honest and honorable lawyer, and hints that he& #39;s only being attacked because he represents unpopular clients.

I& #39;ll note that I know a lot of people who represent unpopular clients who don& #39;t tag along with them when they commit crimes.
And finally, stealing the last little bit of thunder from Dershowitz, the letter argues that shyster is not an anti-semitic slur.
