Original Note:
Claiming that JK Rowling is a Holocaust denier is not defamatory in the US. Defamation of a public figure requires "reckless disregard" of the falsehood of the statement in question, but there is evidence that JK Rowling has denied at least part of the Holocaust. https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1767912990366388735 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actual_malice
