libel/slander has caused no lawsuits
Lenski is best known for his claim to have observed [[evolution]] of [[E. coli]] in a long-term laboratory study, insisting that it was not due to contamination. His 2008 paper asserting his claims was [[peer review]]ed in a mere 14 days, sparking questions from the [[user:Aschlafly|owner]] of this site<ref>See [[Conservapedia talk:Lenski dialog]].</ref> about the thoroughness of the review.

When challenged, Lenski thrice referred to the challenges as [[slander]], yet has filed no lawsuit charging that (or [[libel]]). [[Truth]] offers total legal protection from accusations of libel.
When Lenski received a public request for the data underlying for his published claims, he did not provide the actual data even though his study was taxpayer-funded.
