The corporate media has been buzzing the last few months about a defamation lawsuit filed against Fox News by an electronic voting machine company. In fact, the left-wing corporate press is positively salivating at the monetary damages that might be inflicted on Fox News if the case is lost. Apparently, those purple-haired kids donât understand that $1.6 billion is hardly a fine for Rupert Murdoch â he probably pays that much semi-annually for those routine divorces heâs always getting.
Why would the American corporate media cheer on a lawsuit that has broken all the rules for discovery, and threatens the First Amendment protections of journalists? And since when do vendors operating as third-party proxies for state governments in national elections get to sue the Fourth Estate for defamation?
Thatâs just the start of the trouble. Consider the plaintiff. How can you defame a company that Americans didnât know existed until the 2020 election â in an industry that Democrats like Kamala Harris regularly defamed as corrupt in HBO specials like âKill Chainâ among others?
Thatâs a tough question â legally speaking. Of course, itâs an easy question in terms of politics. What can you tell Democrats that they wonât believe? For example: that boys are girls and girls are boys? Thereâs no basic fact of biology that Democrats wonât deny â if necessary. Thereâs no scientific law they wonât denounce in a pinch â gravity! chemistry! the third law of thermodynamics! â to remain in the good graces of their shameless mob.
After all, the memory of the average Democrat voter is about the same as a fruit fly dipped in Fentanyl.
Thatâs why the corporate media can publicize the private text messages of Fox journalists, and expect that dangerous precedent to be viewed as normal too.
