Judge Rules Rachel Maddow's
Show Isn't News

Original Article

Posted By: Hazymac, 6/23/2021 8:45:16 AM

I’ve never actually watched a full episode of Rachel Maddow’s show on MSNBC, but based on the clips I’ve seen, there’s no doubt that it is left-wing propaganda, not news. And a federal judge apparently agrees with that. Journalist Glenn Greenwald reports that an Obama-appointed judge ruled last month that “Maddow’s show is different than a typical news segment where anchors inform viewers about the daily news.” (Snip) While it’s amusing that we can now say a federal judge has ruled that Rachel Maddow’s show isn’t news, the ruling is actually not as amusing as you would think. The ruling was over a 2019 lawsuit from One America News (OAN),

Comments:

OAN should have prevailed against Maddow's slanderous claim that the network is "paid Russian propaganda." That unsupported accusation seems properly actionable.

Welcome to the 21st. Century, Judge. 5 minutes of viewing would have revealed Madcow's diatribe isn't news.

And if her show isn't news, then it's a corporate contribution to the DNC. FEC, wake up and get to work.

FTA: "Maddow’s words, in my opinion, carried the weight of a factual claim to her audience." Really, whether a lie is pronounced as news or "opinion", the law is supposed to protect against libel and slander. This is ripe for appeal. While a "reasonable person" might dismiss Maddow's polemics, no "reasonable person" watches her show.

Maddow's not news, neither is the rest of MSNBC. They're nothing but an arm of the Democratic Party's communication department, along with CNN, the NYT, and the Washington Post.

People who mock OAN, etc. and then tune in to hang on Maddow's words as though she just descended the Mount with stone tablets are the epitome of ignorance and zero self-awareness.

My interpretation of the judges words are: Rachel Maddow lies, we expect her to lie, and she will continue to lie. What else do you expect from MSNBC and liberal talking heads? My problem with this is that she will be able to do this under protection of "law", no matter how outlandish the accusations as, per the judges ruling, we should expect Rachel Maddow (and other liberals like her) to make up stuff and like with a flourish!

Seems that the best defense when you’re up against it from flip-flopping, moving the goalposts and flat out lying—but have the media in your corner—is to start speaking about yourself in the Third Person.

New Zealand will set a transgender first by sending a biological male to the Olympics to compete against women in weightlifting. Former Olympians have condemned the decision. Other males competing in women’s weightlifting have set new records, demonstrating the commonsense principle that sports are sex-segregated for a reason. Laurel Hubbard, who set New Zealand junior records in weightlifting in 1998 before he transitioned to identify as a woman in 2013, qualified for the Olympics in women’s weightlifting due to a 2015 Olympic Committee rule change, CNN reported. According to the Olympics guidelines, males can compete in women’s divisions so long as their testosterone levels stay

Despite the happy talk, Joe Biden returned from the G7 as from a funeral. China’s revival of Maoism and Vladimir Putin’s refusal to commit to the rules of the Western club mark the end of the global world vision that was so recently deemed inevitable. To see how much of that world has vanished one should recall Barack Obama’s mockery of Mitt Romney’s doubts about whether the dictators had really quit the stage. The world Ronald Reagan left to Bill Clinton is gone. China’s Xi Jinping is now offering a rival version of the End of History: “Reformist leader Deng Xiaoping also sought to reinterpret history,

More years ago than I care to remember, I was a college intern working on Capitol Hill. As part of our experience, various members of Congress came to speak to us. One of them as I recall was Strom Thurmond, at that time the Democratic senator from South Carolina, and a strong segregationist. He was pushing his plan to propagandize the military in something he called “Americanism.” Most of the interns in my class were well-socialized kids from northeast colleges like Yale and Mount Holyoke and such and they listened

Documents from Fulton County, Georgia, that were submitted to state officials for the election audit “highlight significant irregularities in the Atlanta area during last November’s voting, ranging from identical vote tallies repeated multiple times to large batches of absentee ballots that appear to be missing from the official ballot-scanning records,” reports Just The News. Thousands of ballots are potentially impacted by these irregularities, suggesting these irregularities could be results-changing, as Joe Biden’s state-certified victory in the state was by less than 12,000 votes.

Joe Biden is belatedly, slowly and partially acknowledging that the U.S. is in a new cold war with Xi’s China and its junior partner, Putin’s Russia. The magnitude of the shift can be gauged by recalling that Barack Obama, when Joe was his vice president, mocked Mitt Romney for even calling Russia a threat. Now the papers report nothing else. The policy change on China is even more profound. During Biden’s presidential campaign and the early part of his administration, any criticism of the Asian giant was derided as “racist.” In particular, any suggestion that Chinese laboratory negligence or biowarfare experimentation may

LOS ANGELES—World-renowned Venice Beach has long been a place where visitors, residents, and business owners commingled with artists, musicians, and entertainers from all over the country. Over 10 million tourists visit the beach’s famous boardwalk each year, drawn in by the ocean view and the unconventional lifestyle of the city’s eccentric community. But the famed destination no longer circulates in headlines for its wacky tourist attractions or local eateries. Instead, the beach town has become known worldwide for its flourishing homeless encampments, burgeoning filth, skyrocketing crime rate, and increasingly violent transients. As city officials dawdle, the beachside town is falling to ruin, residents say, overwhelmed by the homeless that

Outgoing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ripped his likely replacement, Naftali Bennett, in a speech to Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, on Sunday afternoon, prior to the vote to confirm the new Israeli government. “Bennett always does the opposite of what he says and what he promises,” Netanyahu said, mocking his rival’s prior statements about opposing the Iran nuclear deal. Netanyahu had begun by noting that he and his party, the Likud, had won more votes than any other party in the Knesset. He recounted his long history of public service, including his role in hostage rescues as a member of Israel’s special forces; his diplomatic service in the U.S.; a

In his book Value(s): Building a Better World for All, Mark Carney, former governor both of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, claims that western society is morally rotten, and that it has been corrupted by capitalism, which has brought about a “climate emergency” that threatens life on earth. This, he claims, requires rigid controls on personal freedom, industry and corporate funding. Carney’s views are important because he is UN Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance. He is also an adviser both to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on the next big climate conference in Glasgow, and to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Educators around the country have come out to condemn a 'Dismantling Racism in Mathematics' program which tells teachers not to push students to find the correct answers to math problems because doing so promotes white supremacy. The program is centered around a workbook for teachers entitled 'A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction' which asserts that America's education system – even mathematics instruction – reinforces the dominant power structures of white colonizers. Grading students, asking them to show their work, requiring participation and even pushing them to get the right answer are depicted in the workbook as harmful to minorities.

“This isn’t the first time Biden’s warned the gov’t would use every weapon in its arsenal against Americans,” quipped Tom Elliott, remembering how Biden said something like this at a rally early last year. Maybe the Second Amendment should be extended to include F-15s. Seriously, though, this dumb gun-control talking point is deathless even though it’s never been clearer how untrue it is. Watch, then read on. There are many lessons to be learned from America’s adventure in Afghanistan but an easy one is that a crudely equipped force using guerrilla tactics is fully capable of prevailing over one with superior firepower. That lesson should have been clear already from Vietnam

Cornell University has introduced an astronomy course to explore the connection between the term black holes and “racial blackness” — proof, say critics, that even the hard sciences aren’t immune to universal “racial hysteria.”The course, titled “Black Holes: Race and the Cosmos,” uses work from black studies theorists, artists and fiction writers to challenge “conventional wisdom” about the role that race plays in astronomy.“Conventional wisdom would have it that the ‘black’ in black holes has nothing to do with race. Surely there can be no connection between the cosmos and the idea of racial blackness. Can there?” reads the college catalog description.

That actually happened (see Biden Accidently Makes Best Ever for Second Amendment in Speech Promoting Gun Control Initiatives). In one of the best arguments for the Second Amendment ever spoken by a president, Biden asserted that no one can stand up to the government without F-15s and nuclear weapons. He seems to have a thing for the F-15, having mentioned it several times in this context and perhaps not realizing that the U.S. Military has an array of other fighter-bombers to murder

His doddering front man is advancing a decidedly anti-American set of policies that would fundamentally transform the nation.
