John Oliver sued by Coal CEO

"Three acorns and eighteen cents".

Tough luck if Robert Murray tries to sue John Oliver, Turner, or Time-Warner. Truth is an absolute defense against libel or slander, and the courts generally do not recognize libel or slander suits as appropriate means of protecting a self image.

Donald Trump promised coal jobs -- but it is hard to see how an industry that has lost 2/3 of its employment in twenty years will get those old jobs. President Trump can make life better for Bob Murray through tax cuts that will not create jobs -- just keep his take higher than ever.

Coal CEOs are the worst.

There aren't that many coal CEOs left. Bob Murray is quite possibly the worst CEO not robbing his company.

Coal is a dying business. It's a dirty, dangerous, and ecologically-unfriendly way to get energy.
