John Oliver was sued by Bob Murrary for defamation. Was it really a meritless suit or is there more to the story? If you’re in the market for a great suit, I can’t recommend Indochino highly enough and Legal Eagles get a discount! legaleagle.link/indochino
Summary from Vulture:
Remember back in 2017 when John Oliver did a Last Week Tonight segment about coal company CEO and “geriatric Dr. Evil” Bob Murray, then - as predicted - was sued by Bob Murray the following week? Oliver couldn’t discuss the lawsuit while it was ongoing, but we did get an update when the case was dismissed in February 2018, when Oliver, referencing the original segment, told Murray to “eat shit.” What you might not know, however, is that Murray appealed the case after it was dismissed, so Oliver was yet again forced into silence until the case was recently dropped. Which brings us to last night’s Last Week Tonight, when Oliver was finally free to recap the entire saga … and, in doing so, to start a whole new saga too.
(Thanks to Indochino for sponsoring this video)

@@moralhazard8652 What you are reacting to and what the comment before you are reacting to are two different concepts. Free Market Capitalism, as in, capitalism under markets of small businesses without massive consolidated-corporate dominance, is one of the best economic and political systems for ensuring social mobility and fairness. But the current system of "Capitalism", as a purely money-and-influence based economy controlled by what can be considered to be a plutocratic corporate oligarchy creating regional, geographic monopolies, is not. I'm talking about issues like only having two ISPs over the entire US; everyone else is a subsidiary (or Google, but Google Fiber has been struggling with the immense, anticompetitie duopolistic influence of Charter and AT&T). I am talking about Time Warner Cable and Comcast admitting to the Regional Allocation of Markets on live television and not being broken up for violating the very first clause of the Sherman Antitrust Act, which explicitly prevents that.

Government of the rich by the rich and for the rich. SCOTUS helped it happen with interpretations of legislation that gave corporations imbalanced power, and by deciding that money is a form of free speech (which means 1%ers have waaaay more free speech than the rest of us). The electorate doesn't help when only about 50% of us turn out, even for presidential elections (the voting power of the Trump base was doubled when less than 50% of us turned out in 2016). The media made its contribution to our situation since mainstream media is corporate owned and disses progressives because the corporate agenda rules mainstream news (not to mention how the media emphasizes sensationalism which gave the Donald billions of dollars of free coverage leading up to 2016). What inspires me is the young. (I'm a boomer.) In the last elections Virginia became a blue state because the milleniel turnout was 300% what voter turn out usually is. (Milleniels are a bigger voting bloc than boomers now that all of them are old enough to vote. Hurrah!) I've lived in Europe. When doctors blow it there, lawyers are not involved. A counsel of doctors hear out patients' complaints, when malpractice occurs, and 0 legal fees are spent. Lawyers and doctors don't make nearly as much money in Europe as they do here. Here; doctors have to get rich just to pay for their malpractice insurance. That is a leech on our MEDICAL system that nobody ever discusses; that lawyers get rich from lawsuits, too. The USA is a lawsuit-addicted culture. So here we are in this pickle with a corrupt legal system, a corrupt government (owned by corporate donations to campaigns on both sides of the aisle), a corrupt medical system, and on and on and on. We can untie this gordian knot only by getting progressives who refuse big money elected. Then we can take our country back from the richest of the rich. I feel the Bern.

Yes! They said they owned the name of our company. Off course, they had no chance of winning, but the cost of the legal fees would be higher than the value of the campaign they stole, so we had to agree to drop the suit.

Look, don’t think for a second Oliver has no political affiliation, nor that he’s not bias. He’s skewed many of his skits and, similar to former boss, Jon Stewart, claims that he’s not a journalist. That statement itself is a form of protection against lawsuit. My problem is, while John Oliver says that, he’s also calling for action multiple times. That’s not something a comedian should do, and something John Stewart avoided. I feel like both of Stewart protégé have lost their way, and contributed to the very distrust of mainstream media that they both ridiculed. Oliver in particular, likes to put on a mask of being well researched and balance, while occasionally presenting controversial “evidence” that’s sometime admitted to be inconclusive but was picked up to prove their point. Of course, they claim it’s fine because it’s comedy. I would agree, but in my opinion, I lost all respects for both of them once they took a side.
@paulhunt9439 3 жыл бұрын
@@lc9245 If we want to look at polls. Unfortunately the only thing we really can measure, Jon Stewart, Colbert from the Colbert Report and John Oliver came about because of the rapidly growing mistrust of news media. Something that has been on the steady incline for quite some time. John Oliver himself is not a journalist, but he also doesn't hide the fact that he has a team of journalist qualified personnel working as research team. He himself has down a story on some absolutely, disgustingly large news monopolies that exist. When you have pure political bias over taking mainstream media at an unacceptable level, especially as these monopolies continue to grow having someone make well researched and balanced stories with the occasional controversial piece of evidence, stated as such by Oliver himself, it's better than the alternative. Taking a side in the current political climate is going to happen. During Obama's presidency he was heavily critical of much of Obama's claims too. Sure, he obviously has bias, but still routinely leans on putting pressure on the current ruling party. His comedic take on situations that have flown under the radar and/or very unknown to the public has been massive boost to American education. It is a shame that you lost respect for them, but understandable that different people have different expectations.
