If the statement is a conclusion based upon facts previously disclosed, then yes, it's an opinion and thus, not defamation. Some people have accused others of being "terrorists" simply because those others voiced support for terrorist groups. That is not a crime, generally. Another person ...

On this week's Serious Trouble podcast, Popehat discussed the Trump defamation case against the Iowa pollster, Ann Selzer. Based on Trump's arguments in the case, Trump seems to have relied on precedent set by arguments of social media posters. He argues: a) The First Amendment doesn't ...

Who "celebrates" 9/11? We remember the date but it's not a day of "celebration." This guy is the perfect example that, for the Trump admin, they don't care about intelligence, competence, etc., just that you parrot the right talking points.

When he was doing his redemption tour on the various podcasts where he talked about how he was corrupted by Trump, I never bought his line. He never saw the light; he was transactional just like his old boss and took the position most advantageous to him given the situation.

Per SCOTUS's recent decision in Netchoice v. Moody, plus the decisions in Red Lion v. FCC and Miami Herald v. Tornillo, the Fairness Doctrine cannot be brought back to apply to the "press." It could not apply to any media outlets other than over the air broadcast stations. It would violate 1A.

I'm really hoping that the next time we have an administration that doesn't own its press, the Fairness Doctrine will be brought back. However, we would also need AI authentication tools designed to support fact verification. www.niemanlab.org/2026/07/ai-a...

For awhile now, I've been thinking that LLMS are just a more advanced version of the idea of the 10,000 monkeys with typewriters who given enough time will eventually write Hamlet. LLMs are much faster and we won't see as many bad drafts but its chosen "Hamlet" output still isn't Hamlet.
