'I'm not going to let you continue': ABC host stops Trump lawyer from lying about Biden
Sue him for slander and disbar him
It is much harder to successfully sue for slander if you are a public figure. And not worth Biden's time, honestly.
I didn't know that! Great link!
But "reckless disregard for truth" seems to be perfectly suitable here
And it's not about money. It's about forcing consequences on attorneys who are willing to make insane arguments to help Trump.
But someone can make a board complaint if they can demonstrate false statements made by a member of the bar in connection with their representation. Chances are, nothing will happen... But it's something.
And it is just a blatant lie because he would know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Federal government does not involve itself in state-level criminal trials.
Aha, that's where you're wrong! Biden actually staid up late writing all the briefs and questions for both sides. It's like Brad Pitt in that movie, Sleepers.
This guy looks as if Stephen Miller gained weight and put on a wig tbh..
Steve Miller and Putin’s love child.
Or just Stephen Miller after tying is tie too tight.
Dude's eyes are unsettlingly close together

Oh man, I should go watch Monster Factory.

I'm pretty sure depth perception gets better when the eyes are further apart but facing the same direction. This might be some sort of inbreeding situation where somebody has two genes for eye placement instead of one so they end up reeeeaally close.
It just looks like stephen miller with hair
Now the media growing balls? Seems like convicting someone 34 times all of a sudden makes spewing lies on TV (all "news" outlets) a bad thing
The media has always been corrupt just as it has always been filled with some of the bravest and kindest people of all. You recognizing the exceptions to a broad generalization told to you by... checks notes* The Media is a little comical tbh.
And yet, he did continue to spout the same nonsense and nobody stopped him.
I feel like calling George Stephanopoulos an "ABC Host" kinda minimizes the career he's had... He was a white House communications director, then the Senior Advisor to the President of the United States of America.... Then he became a news reporter and eventually a co-host of Good Morning America. Honestly he's a household name in the US.
This dude looks like a twerp.
His teenaged son gives him swirlies.
Hey it's the creepy smile guy!
Legacy media and status quo people always use that excuse.
They are the choosen people that know the real truth only, so lets censor any opposition that goes against our narrative.
This is not just used against Trump, they use it for much more.
No surprise the working class people do not trust legacy media and their ilk.
Independent media is the way to go, not saying to stop seeing legacy media, but question and be criticial of the status quo.
So if I follow you right you're saying use Independent Media because they'll allow people to just blatantly lie? Is that your argument? Cuz it's not a very strong one.
I like to follow “media” outlets that parrot whateverTrump says. It makes me feel better about the lies I tell myself.
Mainstream media also allows lies. Look at Fox News.
There are no reliable safeguards against lying in any form of media. The closest is the peer review process in academia.
You make it sound like there is no way to verify stuff he says. Like he was just in an interview saying he never said "Lock her up!" - that other people chanted it but he never said it. There are lots of videos of him saying it, so it's a verifiable lie. Of course the media should be able to call him on it.
Just because it doesn't fit your narrative, doesn't mean it's wrong.
Ok comrade, time for bed

This many downvotes on Lemmy is almost impressive
Thanks!
I couldn't have done it alone, it was only possible with the help of many!
So… media has to simultaneously report the truth AND let liars lie?
Good grief!
That was not my point or intention.
Civil discourse is good, censorship of any kind is not good.
Debates are even better, I shared one not too long ago... Here ya go if interested: https://lemmy.world/post/16132440
This person isn't from the USA...seeing legacy media? No one talks like thos in the US.
Russian or Chinese bot I bet
It’s a sea lion.
Ah don't tell it what specific word gave it away so they can fix it :(
I use the term legacy media all the time. It refers to well-known, corporate owned media outlets, both TV and paper. The kinds of outlets that usually publish unvarnished lies from right-wingers, lest they be accused of being "liberal" and are therefore both-sidesing the US right into fascism.
I don't know what the person you're responding to is on about, but "legacy media" is definitely a real term.
Elon Musk says it a lot. Same conclusion.
Edit: is -> is
Oh, you have a reCAPTCHA that can check if people are 'American' or not?
I implore you to really take a hard look at the way you think and come up with your talking points, because I do try to make it a point to do this when people call me out.
Russian or Chinese bot I bet
Sadly, you seem to just be another person that uses this excuse so that you don't have to question your way of view or the way the working class is sees the world.
Are you also critical of independent media?
Great question!
We should be critical of everything, not just legacy media.
I am more critical of politicians, gov't, and legacy media as a principal, since they do the bidding of the owner class, but yes independent media can also be bought and those that do the bidding of the status quo, owner class.
I see a lot of your posts on my feed sometimes and you seem pretty left, what the heck is this about? You sound like a qultist here, what's going on?
Look at his username man. He ain't no Lefty with that name.
A bit of push back against the "I'm not going to let you continue" type of people, where they use it as a legit excuse instead of backing up their disagreement.
I get reminded of White Knight Syndrome for those that use it.
They are both apologetics for the duopoly in this segment at the end of the day.
Well, it only took a decade. Let’s see how long this lasts…
