Jacob Zuma Sues Newspaper One Day After Settling; Cartoon Suits Still Pending This article is one of a few on the wires today describing a recent pair of developments in South African politician Jacob Zuma's $9 million (USD) suite of defamation lawsuits against a number of newspapers: he settled out of court with one paper over a lingering charge, and then turned around and sued them for something else the very next day. This would indicate that Zuma will be quite determined to seek legal satisfaction against those papers where cartoons were at issue. Unless I have the math or the attribution wrong, the newspaper employing the world-renowned cartoonist Zapiro is being sued for almost $2 million (USD) total for three such cartoons.
