So you weren’t just gullible idiots, you knowingly lied and spread the disinformation…
Then they knowingly spread misinformation they even doubted ? Isn't that the worst case for them? 
Like, legally if they themselves believed it they'd be off the hook for a few charges right off. >

It sounds like they're going for the "this isn't news, it's entertainment" defense again. >

It is not even entertainment. It's just bullshit n lies.
The Fox Bullshit Factory. Pumping it out every night! >

It’s willfully false propaganda >

I’m just asking questions /s >

I’m just subverting democracy >

It’s weird, destroying the country ends the profit stream yet they keep throwing us that way, it’s ironic. >

Capitalists don’t care about the future. They do everything in their power to squeeze every penny out of every pocket possible right now. Sustainability is nothing when they can have their wealth today. >

It's the 'one sweety now, or two tomorrow' test that they do on kids. >

Foxnews should be sued to oblivion for the damage they have done to our democracy. >

I agree. I wonder how difficult of a case that would be to win? Fox "News" is a danger to our country to be sure. >

It was tried already.  Failed.  They argued they are ‘entertainment’ and won. >

I believe they said something to the effect that: "No reasonable person would believe that Mr. Hannity was being completely truthful" or something along those lines.
On a side note, does anyone remember the Tucker Carlson bit where he claimed that we were going to run out of diesel before Thanksgiving? >

it was Tucker Carlson and although the defense was argued it was not actually used in the decision. Actual Malice was the defence, I wish people would stop spreading this >

actual malice requires intention, right? So they argued they didn’t know and didn’t intend to cause harm? >

"Actual malice" is basically a complete disregard for truth. It's knowingly and willingly ignoring facts that refute the claims, or intentionally avoiding fact-checks.
It has nothing to do with wanting to cause harm. >

Isn't it exactly what Tucker Carlson does ?
