As if we needed to hear anyone else say it, even an Obama-appointed federal judge has now ruled that Rachel Maddow's show and parent company cannot be sued for blatantly lying about people because it is clear to anyone who watches her show that it is "make up whatever we feel like" opinion instead of fact-based reporting.

"The Obama-appointed judge Cynthia Bashant dismissed the defamation lawsuit on the grounds that Maddow’s audience knows she’s hyperpartisan, and thus, as Greenwald put it, that her audience “understands that her show consists of exaggeration, hyperbole, and pure opinion, and therefore would not assume that such outlandish accusations are factually true even when she uses the language of certainty and truth when presenting them"
