    One defamation lawsuit later... This is incredible. Not just for the irony part. (Anchors wanted to talk about “cancel culture” but producers are probably in their ear reminding them they cannot lie on this—but just this). It’s really a demonstration of regulatory incentives.https://twitter.com/LevineJonathan/status/1356723928782303233 …

        Really getting a lesson in real time in the value of defamation law in democracy. Is this the solution to disinformation? Deterrence through successful defamation cases?

        I honestly think we're past the point where the dangers from failing to regulate speech are greater than the dangers of regulating speech. The ability to broadcast blatant misinformation such as the Big Lie has no possible societal benefit.
