Meanwhile, I will also try to find different avenues to present the verifiable facts regarding this man and his business. I disagree with your assessment that my primary goal is to "malign" Frank Patti. My only interest is to bring to light his actions and his policies and allow others to come to their own conclusions. He is, by nature virtue of his personality and past shenanigans, a public figure. As such, there is a very different set of rules that apply to someone like him. This is the essence of many journalistic decisions that surely you surely understand.

Every day decent, hardworking human beings unknowingly come in to this man's business to fill out job applications hoping to earn a meager living. They're not even be considered simply because they came in with the wrong skin color. Patti's establishment, Pensacola's biggest seafood market and gourmet store, is seemingly in violation of federal Equal Employment Opportunity Laws and the Civil Rights Act on a nearly more-or-less daily basis. There is nothing libelous about thisstatement; after all, libel requires that an accusation be false.
