Fox News Fears Its Early Downplaying of Coronavirus Could Lead to Lawsuits

No, but she is going to be sued for wrongful death.

 

I'll do you one better, I'll quote the actual liability laws.

First of all, in a similar manner to the medical malpractice situations. Ruling in the affirmative could have a chilling effect on the first amendment. So you have that issue to contend with. But then if that weren't enough to spoil the liberal wet dreams of Fox News being sued to oblivion, again you'd have to establish liability. Speciifically: negligence or misconduct

Which as I established earlier, would be something akin to: "It's okay, go out and get sick the virus isn't real." That wasn't said ever, it was never implied ever. This is a case(as per usual in sue happy America) of sour grapes in the freaking Court System.

Stop abusing the court of law, to feed the fat cat of lawyers paychecks and also to extort people of their wealth.

 

She may be called as the first witness!

 

That's actually a lot more likely. She herself can't be held liable for the actions of other people, and she can't be held for liability for misconstrued statements. But then, as I said: Lawyer fees, the cost. When she could easily be hired by another network, unless she wants to clear her name. So this is far more likely the court action we will see.

 

Fox news and the rw media told people it was a hoax. That is willful negligence. They are going to be sued out of existence.

It is no different than the idiots holding church services on Sunday. One pastor was arrested for a crime.

You can't yell "There is no fire!!!" in a burning theater.

 

Look, I did not create the system, but it is what it is. And you do not even need to win to win, the threat of a lawsuit, especially if it becomes a class action lawsuit, is more than enough to cripple or change behavior. Don't be surprised to see Trumpsters join in on this.

 

You can't take words out of context in a court of law, you're sworn to actually tell the truth. Using the word "hoax" does not imply that the virus was a hoax. Even Politifact has finally dinged that. There will not be damages paid(unless Fox News just wants to get it over with and doesn't mind the publicity hit.) The only thing that WILL be paid is fat cat lawyer fees.

Who knew this is how progressives think fighting for the middle class actually is.

 

My source is the cdc.

 

He is quoting experts. And that information has saved lives.

 

Who is we, you can't control we what Americans do so why is Trump in your head so much?

 

Feel free to link then.

 

At 340% every 2 weeks, ....

 

I do not assume that the ~3300 growth over two weeks was linear because it is exponential.

 

She should. She didn’t call the Corona virus a scam. She correctly observed (and we see it in real time here) that the progressive left is attempting to use the Corona virus pandemic to attack Trump. That is the scam.

 

Look it up yourself as I did. You are the cdc response expert.

 

Which one, because it isn't Fauci or Berx?

 

That the irony of the op being false is lost on the left. That makes it just that much more delicious entertainment.

 

So mankind will still exist? Good!

 

Do your homework. Start by becoming current in the thread and in the sub forum. There are multiple threads about it.

Fauci has stated that he would take off label medications. The head of the FDA stated that he would prescribe it off label before the FDA approved it.

 

Wow, I never knew that. You can learn so much from anonymous posters on the internet!

Have you considered taking a job in the censorship business? A genius like yourself could possibly save the world by telling people what they should read or not read. Wow, thanks again.

 

Another genius!

Maybe you can tell me the answer to your important question?

If you can get them asking the wrong questions, you don't have to worry about the answers.

 

Enquiring minds like yours can believe everything they see on TV, and express certainty that the media is always true and accurate with their statements and assessments.

 

Yes. Learned a lesson from downplaying things that are quite obviously serious and deadly just because you can't see past your own politics.

 

Thanks for elaborating.

It turns out that in sickness or in health, election year or not, humans in office conspire, and humans making up the general public love to speculate, theorize if you will, about how those in government conspire.

Some say it started with the JFK assassination, but probably it started before that.
