Buongiorno, https://wattsupwiththat.com/2021/12/09/bombshell-in-court-filing-facebook-admits-fact-checks-are-nothing-more-than-opinion/
«In court filing, Facebook admits ‘fact checks’ are nothing more than opinion» --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- In its response to Stossel’s defamation claim, Facebook responds on Page 2, Line 8 in the court document (download it below) that Facebook cannot be sued for defamation (which is making a false and harmful assertion) because its ‘fact checks’ are mere statements of opinion rather than factual assertions. Opinions are not subject to defamation claims, while false assertions of fact can be subject to defamation. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Breve riassunto delle puntate precedenti: John Stossel, un giornalista libertario USA, si offese che Facebook etichettò un suo post che parlava degli incendi in nord America come "misleading" [1] basandosi sul lavoro del loro fornitore di servizi di fact checing “Climate Feedback”; come non bastasse reiterò l'offesa su un secondo video - titolato “Are We Doomed?” - etichettandolo come "partly false", tanto che Stossel, dopo aver chiesto inutilmente spiegazioni, decise di chiamare in giudizio Facebook (ora Meta) per diffamazione. [2] In tutta risposta Facebook ha depositato un documento nel quale sostiene che: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- labels (cioè "false and misleading", n.d.r.) themselves are neither false nor defamatory; to the contrary, they constitute protected opinion --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Interessante linea difensiva :-D Saluti, 380° [1] https://wattsupwiththat.com/2021/09/30/john-stossel-sues-facebook-climate-feedback-for-defamation/ [2] https://digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3543&context=historical -- 380° (Giovanni Biscuolo public alter ego) «Noi, incompetenti come siamo, non abbiamo alcun titolo per suggerire alcunché» Disinformation flourishes because many people care deeply about injustice but very few check the facts.
