Fox News' Jesse Watters defended former President Donald Trump's "legal right" to submit slates of fake electors to states following the 2020 election.
This is one weakness of free soecieties. Even in good-natured reporting and arguments, it is very difficult to differentiate between a lie, or a statement simply being wrong or different than yours. If you give an institution the power to decide what can be reported, what constitutes lies and such, this could get abused to silence all opposing voice.
This leave us extremely vulnerable to propaganda, since bad actors have access to the same immunity journalists earned over time. It really is hard to differentiate the two legally.
This leave only one way of getting rid of propaganda, and it is to prove intent. Have them admit that they’re lying on purpose. I guess 1 strike for fox wasnt enough.
