Original Note:
Claiming that Vance's statement is a lie is a potentially slanderous accusation of deception. Fox News was recently sued for $2.7 billon for this, Alex Jones was sued for $1.5 billion for this. Tim Miller, a trusted MSNBC analyst, must be held to the same standard. https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/11/media/fox-corp-board-subpoena-smartmatic-lawsuit/index.html#:~:text=The%20lawsuit%2C%20which%20was%20filed,for%20then%2Dcandidate%20Joe%20Biden. https://apnews.com/article/alex-jones-sandy-hook-lawsuit-3ccd113496caee18a085dfa54c6e6c0e https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/slander#:~:text=Slander%20is%20a%20false%20statement,proven%20by%20the%20party%20suing.
