You might want to go tell all those lawyers who have sued "opinion hosts/anchors" for slander and libel cases only to lose because judges/juries determine that opinion hosts are not held to the same levels as news hosts. There are actual laws on the books detailing the difference between news/journalism reporting and opinion hosts.

They might only be civil cases, but they can cost you millions of dollars.

There most certainly is a legal difference between the two. An important one.

I don't understand why you're arguing there aren't. What is it about this that bothers you, specifically?

Do you believe opinion anchors should have the same credibility as news anchors? Because that's the impression I'm getting.

I'm arguing this is not true.

There are actual laws on the books detailing the difference between news/journalism reporting and opinion hosts.

The laws regarding defamation apply to news hosts, opinion hosts or you or me all the same way.

It's broader than journalism. I think you are conflating certain things.

If you can point to such a law, I'll look at it
