Larussa suing Twitter...

[daske17]

The story gets better. The settled and here are the terms -

 

La Russa said Friday that Twitter has agreed to pay legal fees and make a donation to his Animal Rescue Foundation.

 

Isn't extortion a crime itself?

LaRussa filed a frivolous lawsuit and got them to donate money to his charity rather than pay legal expenses to fight it.

 

Not literally extortion, but figuratively I see the point.

LaRussa filed a lawsuit. They settled out of court. That's not extortion.

The extortion comment was a joke. I know how it works.

 

I just think it's ridiculous that because Larussa was pissed off about this Twitter thing, he not only sued and settled for personal damages, but then got them to donate to his stupid charity.
