OA689: Lawsuit or Interpretive Dance? Why Not Both!

<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Today's episode begins with a brief mention of the breaking news about Mike Pence that we will be covering in depth as soon as we know more!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Then, we look at a couple of lawsuits and learn why Liz isn't always a fan of the OA "read the complaint backwards" method. Does she convince Andrew? Listen and find out!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We break down the latest conspiracy counterclaims from One America Network News, while learning the difference between the conservative persecution complex worldview -- that Big Tech is censoring conservatism because reasons -- and the reality: that big companies are funding and propping up garbage conservative outlets like OANN.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>After that, we move on to arguably the Worst People in the World: anti-vaxxers. Specifically, we look at a lawsuit by RFK, Jr. and a whole bunch of weirdos against All the Media for kicking them off YouTube and Twitter. It's... something, all right. But! At least we learn a little something about the Trusted News Initiative anti-trust and the media along the way.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p><strong>Notes</strong></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>SOTU Fact-check<br /> <a href= "https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/08/us/politics/fact-check-biden-state-of-the-union.html" target="_blank" rel= "noreferrer noopener">https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/08/us/politics/fact-check-biden-state-of-the-union.html</a></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Dominion complaint against OAN<br /> <a href= "https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.234315/gov.uscourts.dcd.234315.1.0.pdf" target="_blank" rel= "noreferrer noopener">https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.234315/gov.uscourts.dcd.234315.1.0.pdf</a></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>OAN California Lawsuit<br /
