Melania Trump Sues Daily Mail and Maryland Blog for Libel
---------------------------------------------------------

Donald Trump's wife, Melania Trump, has sued the Daily Mail Online and a
Maryland blog for libel, alleging the two sites falsely claimed she'd
been involved with an escort agency. She's being represented by lawyer
Charles Harder, who also represented Hulk Hogan in his lawsuit against
Gawker, which forced Gawker Media to declare bankruptcy, sell itself to
Univision for $135 million and shut down its flagship website.
