- josefresco 5y agoI don't watch Rachel Maddow but I certainly wouldn't trust her opinion (being a TV news personality) on such important topics as COVID where she (and every other news personality) has zero qualifications. Can you share the link to her testimony?
- RegBarclay 5y agoHer defense in a defamation lawsuit was that she was using hyperbole in offering an opinion. She's not the only commentary show host to use that defense, but she's the most notable one on the left that a lot of people like to overlook when pointing out the exaggerations and hyperbole on the right. https://timesofsandiego.com/business/2019/10/21/rachel-maddow-asks-san-diego-judge-to-throw-out-oan-defamation-suit/ https://timesofsandiego.com/business/2019/10/21/rachel-maddo...
- TechBro8615 5y agoShe was also the first to use the defense, i.e. before Tucker Carlson used it. I mention this because it's a fact that people often overlook when discrediting extremist comments from Carlson like "the NSA read my emails."
