OAN are also issuing a disclaimer with it saying that it is paid programming or as they say ‘opinion only’ and that they don’t endorse statements such as those concerning Dominion and Smartmatic. Not sure what to make of that but not sure it’s helpful
Hmm. I’m. Not convinced that the disclaimer they’re using would even be sufficient in any case.. maybe that’s why it’s 2 hours and not the 3 hours we were promised.
Oann may not have the resources to counter that suit. If they're already a small outfit, wasting millions on a suit that others are already going to fight is basically pointless.

They endorse it by airing it. Just covering their asses.

Lawsuit protection. They're not Rudy and Sidney. They don't have the same info to refute claims of libel or slander.
Sure but why not? Why would they be airing it at all.
Why not air it? If you believe it and dont wanna get sued... throw the disclaimer.
That's the "paid programming" aspect. They were paid to air it or so they claim. They're just distancing themselves for legal reasons I think.
Section 230 should apply to broadcast media if it's going to apply to social media.
They’re giant cucks

They probably have an indemnity clause in the contract with Mr Pillow, so that he agrees to take all the flak in case of a lawsuit in any case.
The problem is that’s not going to work. They need some better lawyers because that disclaimer is useless.
