Devin Nunes' defamation suit over family farm dismissed by judge.
A federal judge in Iowa has ruled against former U.S. Rep. Devin Nunes in a lawsuit he filed claiming he was defamed by articles published by Esquire magazine about his family’s Iowa dairy farm. The judge ruled in favor of reporter Ryan Lizza and Esquire publisher Hearst Magazines, stating that a reasonable jury couldn’t find the article’s statements defamatory. This marks the second time the court has ruled against Nunes.
