My point is that I live in the real world, where "But I know I'm right and Mom told me I'm special" isn't going to sway a judge. A solid legal argument -- based on facts, supporting evidence, and well-researched precedents -- will have far better results.
In a civil lawsuit, all the filing costs are paid by the plaintiff, not the defendant. If you know you spoke the truth, and you have solid evidence to back that up, then you really don't need a lawyer. So your monetary costs are this much: $0. Discovery can be time consuming if you are disorganized, but if you already have your evidence documented, as you should have before mouthing off, then it will be no big deal. No more than a few hours.

If I only have access to a single cable company, does it really matter if that company is Comcast, Time-Warner, Charter, or SpinCo?
