"I don't care what that woman up there, the mother, has felt," he continued. "Her emotions are her own. But for the country in choosing a leader, it's wrong to have someone get up there and tell a lie about Hillary Clinton. It's not true.

You may have a point about libel. Mrs. Smith is a private person, not a public figure. Mrs. Clinton is a public figure. It is protected speech to say just about anything about a public figure, but it is not protected speech to do so about a private figure.

So there might be a valid libel claim against Chris Mathews. There might even be discovery to see if there was collusion with the Clinton campaign. Did Chris give money to the Clintons?
