...couldn't care less about him or this story other than it being used as Fake News propaganda to smear the right.

The fact is that the accuser has now apologized. Given that fact, coupled with the utter and complete lack of evidence against Schlapp, then, yeah, I'd say he is innocent, although of what I have no idea, as I don't even know or care what this dipshit alleged Schlapp did.

Lefty cult members like yourself, though, will continue to think Schlapp is guilty despite all evidence to the contrary AND try to draw parallels between him and the rest of your hated political enemies because you must pretend not to know things. This is exactly why the people who propagandize you push and report fake lawsuits like this -- they know that it will bounce around the lefty echo chamber as truth forever.
