NEW YORK, Aug. 23 (UPI) -- Two insurance brokers filed multimillion-dollar defamation lawsuits against Slate magazine and columnist and former New York Gov. Elliot Spitzer.
The suits -- one seeking at least $60 million in federal court and the other seeking at least $30 million in New York state court -- allege Spitzer targeted the insurance brokers William Gilman and Edward McNenney for prosecution when he was New York's attorney general, The New York Times reported Tuesday.
