Desperation strikes deep in the heartland.

I hope the judge sues them beyond recognition. That’s defamation of character and I don’t care if the guy is in the public eye - that’s just dead wrong.

Fox “News,” huh? For me to say “disgraceful” is , as lawyers say, “surplusage.”

The judge should sue these bastards, IMO.

But of course he did. There is nothing, nothing too low for these folks.

Can we just agree not to use the words “Fox” and “news” together in the same sentence unless we’re discussing a report of someone being attacked by a rabid fox?

Guess Fox News is desperate for another massive defamation suit against them. Okay, then — here’s hoping they get what they want.

Defaming a federal magistrate judge seems both problematic and very on-brand for Fox News.

The Dominion case goes to trial in April.

We sound like news. We look like news. We even have news in our name. But the truth is, we just make up stuff.

I quite agree. If I were the judge, I’d certainly give the strongest consideration to a claim. They need to both pay for this and make an abject apology on the air, multiple times.

Can Judge Reinhart sue Kilmeade for slander since he didn’t admit the photo was fake even after he knew it photoshopped. Someone on the left should photoshop all kinds of porno images of the entire Faux crew and post them.
