Herring Networks, Inc., which owns One America News Network, a “conservative alternative” to the news, filed a $10,000,000 defamation lawsuit in a U.S. District Court in California on Monday against MSNBC host Rachel Maddow, Comcast, NBC Universal Media, and MSNBC Cable for defamation and censorship.
As detailed in a press release Monday, One America News (OAN) is suing Maddow and her employer for making the false claim on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that OAN “really literally is paid Russian propaganda” — an assertion OAN says was made “maliciously and recklessly” and despite the left-leaning host knowing it was false. The defamatory claim, OAN says, was made shortly after OAN President Charles Herring condemned NBC’s parent company, Comcast, for engaging in “anti-competitive censorship.”
