RIAA Bullies Witnesses Into Perjury

Posted by Zonk on from the talk-short dept.

QT writes "A Michigan couple is counter-suing the RIAA after they learned that the RIAA had bullied their witnesses into lying. The story revolves around a 15-year-old girl who, when deposed, told how RIAA lawyers told her that she had to commit perjury just so they could win their case. From the article: 'Q - Did [the RIAA lawyer] tell you why he needed you to stick with your original false story? A - Because he said he didn't have a case unless I did. Q - So, he told you that he didn't have a case unless you stuck with the original false story?'"

    Both the President/CEO of the RIAA and the MPAA are ran by Jews. These people run our biggest companies in the media and all they are is a bunch of stingy fucks that want everyone to support Israel.

    What do you expect from the most vile and evil race to have ever inhabited the earth?
