So basically you're saying that the lawsuit will be decided by sentiment, and not legal precedent? I think that's a concern, but I also have more trust in juries than they are given. As an example, many meritless lawsuits against gun manufacturers have been won by the manufacturers. This also strikes me as a legal stretch--regardless of how good for society local newspapers were, it feels like horse breeders suing car manufacturers.

Accountable news outlets are much more important for democracy than cars. Eager reporters are a stone in the shoe for any government. That is why they are murdered (outside of the US). You should do whatever it takes to allow newspapers to procure and publish relevant news. The alternative is twitter, youtube, facebook, and that socialmedia Trump wants to launch. The world is heading to a very dark place.
