我们起诉CNN的诉状摘要

我们起诉CNN的诉状摘要:
此诉讼发生后, 有朋友问: “为什么在密苏里起诉?”, “下一步怎样?”

任何一个法庭判决有效的前提有三条:

Personal Jurisdiction
Subject Matter
Sufficient Notice

CNN 在密苏里播放, 在密苏里有利益, 因此,密苏里的法庭对CNN有Personal Jurisdiction. 其实,美国个个州的法庭对CNN都有Personal Jurisdiction. 原则上,对CNN的起诉也可以在中国,英国的法庭.
种族歧视是联邦法, 因此,起诉CNN选在联邦法院.
传票作为Notice, 已于周一发出,CNN有30天时间作出最初回答,当然认罪最好.

诉状有四条, 摘要如下.具体解释及后续发展,会及时向大家汇报

COUNT I
RACIAL DISCRIMINATION
17. Plaintiff realleges and hereby incorporates by reference the allegations set forth in the preceding paragraphs as if fully set forth herein.

It is against the race of Chinese when Jack Cafferty called Chinese as a“bunch of goons and thugs”. Plaintiff was hurt because he is a Chinese. Thus, CNN discriminately hurt Chinese by providing racial discrimination comments when it performed its contract to provide the television programs.

Francisco Olympic torch relay. CNN is biasing to China originated products and pro-China activities.

Thus CNN discriminated against China originated viewers by not providing them balanced coverage about their home country when it performed,its contract to provide the television programs.

national origin discrimination comments at the time when CNN’s television program was watched. And
