NewsGuard Sued for Defamation, Helping Bribed Joe's Corrupt Feds Violate Our Speech Rights

NewsGuard and the U.S. government, under Bribed Joe, engaged in a conspiracy to defame and censor Consortium News' foreign policy reporting, a violation of their First Amendment Rights to free thought, free speech and communication of their views. Newsguard wants a $13M settlement and a Court Order for Bribed Joe's Junta to cease their First Amendment violations. Bribed Joe's Junta deployed NewsGuard to use AI to censor views they didn't want published regarding Russia and Ukraine.

'NewsGuard, under contract from the Pentagon, the lawsuit states, “is acting jointly or in concert with the United States to coerce news organizations to alter viewpoints as to Ukraine and Russia, imposing a form of censorship and repression of views that differ or dissent from policies of the United States and its allies.”'

'The lawsuit calls NewsGuard “functionally an intelligence proxy for the United States” that claims to be an independent news company. The company targets media organizations to retract articles, the lawsuit said, without disclosing it is under contract with a U.S. intelligence agency.'

'NewsGuard tagged all 20,000-plus Consortium News articles and videos published since 1995 with warnings to “proceed with caution.” NewsGuard warned its subscribers that Consortium News produces “disinformation,” “false content” and is an “anti-U.S.” media organization. NewsGuard based the stark warning on just six articles and none of the outlet’s videos and disregarded the company’s thorough defense of their content.'

I think we've had enough of the censorious clowns. $13M and an order to stop are perfectly reasonable asks. Please discuss.
