    Plato singled out Aristophanes' play The Clouds as slander that contributed to the trial and subsequent condemning to death of Socrates

          He wasn't killed for that though. They probably diddled kids as he was executed. It had to do with him telling the trial (which was sure to let him off) that he was smarter and knew the proper punishment, which should be that they thank him and feed him free of charge for life. He got an innocent verdict flipped to nearly a unanimous guilty with a death sentence cause he couldn't not be a little shit.
