![MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES
I. INTRODUCTION
Petitioner Herring Networks, Inc. is a nationally known conservative news network. In 2020 and years following, it became the subject of public controversy for its role in attempting to
subvert our nation's Constitution by spreading lies about the 2020 election.
Petitioner has more recently become the subject of public controversy for its hiring of former United States Congressman Matt Gaetz, who in October 2024 was briefly named as a prospective nominee for United States Attorney General. Gaetz resigned from office before the House Ethics Committee released a bipartisan report finding that "Representative Gaetz violated House Rules, state and federal laws, and other standards of conduct prohibiting prostitution, statutory rape, illicit drug use, acceptance of impermissible gifts, the provision of special favors
and privileges, and obstruction of Congress." In December 2024, Gaetz was hired by Petitioner. The controversial hire was reported by many major, reputable news organizations and was also
reported by Petitioner's own news network.
Respondent Chelsea Goss is a social media activist who produces political commentary on platforms including Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube. Her work has been seen by millions, and her content receives about 40 to 50 million views each month. Through her speech and activism, she aims to be a voice for victims of sexual assault by powerful men-which led her to public commentary about Petitioner's hiring of former Congressman Gaetz. She has posted dozens of videos about the hiring on social media, often using language like "pedophile" and "child fucker" to describe Mr. Gaetz, who was found by the House Ethics Committee to have committed
statutory rape for having sex with a 17-year-old girl when he was 35.
Petitioner brought this action to silence Respondent from speaking about itself, Gaetz, and Mr. Herring. [too long]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:l4cenoqdzpqsovxjyjue37sd/bafkreifhltr2cm6vlgiphpqfdguwbgadhgpb6umdz56okvjqziwfk2gpdi)
