Jared Paul Stern former New York Post gossip writer, sued Ron Burkle, Bill and Hillary Clinton for defamation. Yesterday, the New York State Supreme Court Judge Walter Tolub dismiss it.

LA Weekly's Patrick Range McDonald has been following the case:

Tolub concluded that Stern's complaint failed to "identify any of the supposedly false and defamatory statements that any of the defendants ever made or conveyed. Additionally, and equally important, is that the complaint does not deny that any acts or quotes attributed to plaintiff were untrue." Tolub also wasn't thrilled with Stern's lawyer, Larry Klayman, who has a history of suing the Clintons, describing him as an "avowed enemy" of the former president and New York senator.

McDonald sent FBLA this email. "I talked with Jared Stern for two hours for a different story I wrote about Burkle, and he seemed very reasonable and level-headed. The thing with him, that really sticks out to me, is that he was never charged for a single crime, even after the FBI investigated it. But his career was still decimated after Burkle, a billionaire with a lot of big time connections, played hard ball with him. For any journalist, I would think they would want to keep a close eye on this case."

We are so there.
