Rudy Giuliani says in a court filing that he's not disputing that he made public comments about two Georgia election workers that were false
about two Georgia election workers that were false, but contends his words are constitutionally protected statements, according to a court filing.
Though Giuliani acknowledges in the filing that the statements were false, he does not concede that they caused any damage to Freeman or Moss. That distinction is important because plaintiffs in a defamation case must prove not only that a statement made about them was false but that it also resulted in actual damage.
Giuliani political adviser Ted Goodman said in an email Wednesday that the filing was made"in order to move on to the portion of the case that will permit a motion to dismiss."
