OA742: Twitter Can't Violate the First Amendment, But Fox Can Definitely Defame a Gov't Official

About this episode

In light of Linda Yaccarino being named CEO of Twitter, Liz and Andrew break down Trumpworld's never-ending lawsuits against social media, and yet another defamation suit against Fox News, this one by Nina Jankowicz.

Happy Mother's Day!

For the Patreon bonus, we discuss beer, the Superbowl, and Rule 62.1 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, because of course we do.
