Original Note:
Labeling your statement as "opinion" doesn't magically make it not misleading. Per SCOTUS: 'If a speaker says, ''In my opinion John Jones is a liar,'' he implies a knowledge of facts which lead to the conclusion that Jones told an untruth.' https://www.nytimes.com/1990/06/22/us/excerpts-from-ruling-on-opinion-privileges.html No proof that Hanks is a pedophile: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/bbc-tom-hanks-arrested-child-porn-hoax/
