I’M PRETTY SURE THEY’RE FALLING INTO A TRAP: ACORN Sues Hidden-Camera Filmmakers, Breitbart.com. It should be fun to do discovery on this one.

Plus, from the A.P., How the ACORN ‘pimp and hooker’ videos came to be.

UPDATE: Reid Refuses to Hold ACORN Hearings.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Politico: Barney Frank Turns Against Acorn.

MORE: Ann Althouse:

Yes, it’s almost as if the real point of the videos was to provoke a lawsuit that would open ACORN to the legal intrusions of discovery. And of course, Giles and O’Keefe will get even more publicity, and it shouldn’t be hard for them to attract aggressive legal counsel and a hefty litigation fund.

Breitbart really does seem to have planned this out like Hari Seldon. Or maybe he’s The Mule . . . .
