“If experience is any indication, Savage’s lawsuit may very well end up being settled out of court, as its unlikely CAIR will wish to call attention to these unsavory details.”

The difference is that in previous legal actions, CAIR was bringing the suit, and when discovery was threatened, CAIR settled and dropped the suit. In this case, Savage is bringing the suit, and if he doesn’t choose to settle, they’ll have to go to court. I think. I guess maybe Savage has to state damages, though…and if they just decide to go no contest, they’d just pay? But if they do, wouldn’t that make them sitting ducks for more suits? I suspect we need to working on more of these suits!!
