YR: Well, let me give you a specific example to see what you think. Some people claim, Justice Roberts, and it must be untrue, and therefore libelous, that you grew up in a small, wealthy town, Long Beach, Indiana, on the shores of Lake Michigan, that was known to be highly anti-Semitic, and that you managed to hide this during your confirmation. They also say that this is even more likely to be true because that general part of Indiana and Michigan, on the shores of Lake Michigan, had been a home to the Nazi Bund before the war -- you know, the war we fought in the 1940s, about fifteen wars ago -- and that anti-Semitism was a sort of national sport then. Now I know that none of this could be true because you hid nothing during your confirmation. So if a corporation were to say it, could it be guilty of libel?
JR: Yes, the sons of bitches.
YR: Would the corporation be guilty of libel even if everything it said were true?
JR: Yes, especially if it is true.
YR: Can you explain this a bit more?
