InPresence 0137: Libel and Humiliation

InPresence host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities.

Here Jeff describes his experience of being libelled in 1980, as well as the six-year long legal battle that followed. Eventually Jeff emerged victorious. Nevertheless, the lawsuit took its toll. A particular difficulty for those who have been libelled is dealing with the response from former friends and supporters who distance themselves and take a “wait and see” attitude toward the situation. Jeff then points out that one of his favorite guests, Jason Reza Jorjani, is now suffering from a libel much worse than the one he endured.
