Free Speech: (Noun) The right to express any opinions without censorship.

Jerry Seinfeld testified in court yesterday in regards to the allegations that he slandered the woman whose book his wife ripped off. His excuse? The old "comedy" defense:

He was just mining the legal system for laughs - and supporting the right of standup comedians to do the same, he said. Seinfeld cited several episodes of the "show about nothing" where he mocked frivolous lawsuits - including an episode where Kramer wins free coffee for life in a court settlement because he got burned on gourmet roast.

His lawyers, who are trying to get the defamation suit against him tossed, pointed out that his flick "Bee Movie" also has a plot that revolved around a silly suit. In the movie, a bumblebee voiced by the comic sues honey manufacturers for exploiting bees. (Source)

Wow, he's right. Fictional bees suing a honey company is just like him calling the woman his wife stole from a "wacko" and a "celebrity stalker." The only difference is that one of those things was said in the context of an animated children's movie and the other was said in the context of Jerry Seinfeld being a huge fucking asshole. Can you guess which is which? It's virtually impossible to tell, isn't it? Case closed!
