Journalists, ladies and gentlemen.
Back in 2021, Rachel Maddow and MSNBC/NBC Universal were sued by Dr. Mahendra Amin, who performed two hysterectomies (in 2017 and 2019) on female detainees at an immigration center. A whistleblower nurse claimed Dr. Amin was performing 'mass hysterectomies' and it was a claim Maddow and others at MSNBC were happy to run with.
They labeled Dr. Amin a 'uterus collector', despite concerns from NBC Universal deputy director of standards Chris Scholl expressing concerns about the story, citing Dr. Amin's 'clean record' and the fact the whistleblower nurse had 'a beef' with the doctor.
Now a judge has ruled Maddow and MSNBC did, in fact, make 'verifiably false' claims about the Georgia doctor.

But believe these people when they tell you Kamala is an amazing politician and Trump is basically Hitler.
They'd never lie to us, right?
More from The Post Millennial:
Amin sued NBCUniversal for defamation in 2021 and a Senate probe into the allegations found no evidence the doctor had performed "mass hysterectomies." The Senate report stated, "The Subcommittee did not substantiate the allegations of mass hysterectomies on ICDC detainees. Records indicate that Dr. Amin performed two hysterectomies on ICDC detainees between 2017 and 2019. Both procedures were deemed medically necessary by ICE."
A trial date for the defamation case has not been set yet.
Dr. Amin is suing for $30 million, and we hope he gets every penny.
Whole history of "verifiably false" statements.

Enough to fill volumes.
It’d be easier to count the things that Maddow has said that are NOT verifiably false.

It'd be a much shorter list.
MNBC lies? Shocking!

Totally shocking.
Not.
This is par for the course.
As false as their RNC Convention blue screen windows.

In the words of the agitated Left, Rachel Maddow is an "adjudicated" liar and fraud. https://t.co/g9ktEy06eN

Yep.
She sure is.
Pretty hard to believe. False statements on MSDNC? That had never happened before. https://t.co/Uoa3o6PqmJ

They've always been so honest in the past.
(Yeah, that was sarcasm).

We need more of these. Hold them accountable.
If they go bankrupt, they go bankrupt. That's on them.
