(11,767 posts)I am betting it won't get thrown out of court like Palin's case did.
I am betting they will use the Tucker Carlson defense though, "Watters is an idiot and no reasonable person should believe what he is saying is true."
While I would like the libel and slander laws to stay as they are, I am almost tempted to want Thomas and Gorsuch to tighten them up. Fox and right wing media would be decimated WAY before any damage was done to traditional media.

(9,708 posts)Not lies. Disinformation. Purposeful. Untethered in reality, but laser-pointed at an upcoming news item.
This is how you destroy a nation and sow division between those who live in the real world and those who do not.
The jury is out on which one will prevail. But fantasies can never hold together so catastrophe would be the only outcome.
