With CNN’s high-profile defamation loss in the rearview, attention shifts to MSNBC’s looming trial in the $30 million "uterus collector" lawsuit after Rachel Maddow, Nicolle Wallace, and Chris Hayes’ programs made "verifiably false" statements that a Georgia doctor performed unnecessary hysterectomies at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) center.
A jury trial is scheduled to kick off on April 22, in Waycross, Georgia.
Plaintiff Dr. Mahendra Amin, an obstetrician gynecologist who provided medical care to women detained at the Irwin County Detention Center, was accused in 2020 of performing unnecessary hysterectomies by a nurse at the facility who made a whistleblower complaint.
NBC published an article despite initial skepticism from the network’s standards department and MSNBC quickly followed with a series of on-air reports in which the doctor was often referred to as the "uterus collector" on September 15, 2020.
However, the whistleblower’s claims were never proven to be true.

Haven’t we seen a similar case with Maddow before? IIRC, she said she wasn’t a journalist, she is just an entertainer, and she is allowed to say anything she wants. I think the court bought it last time.
This is a big one and pretty much an open and shut case for defamation on the merits. I’m guessing MSNBC settles and gives out a large check here.
A name change would clarify things: “Rachel-Cedric the Entertainer”
He better cash it quick.
I don’t know, this may be a case of stopped clock being occasionally right. There are a LOT of doctors out there eager to perform hysterectomies on women once they turn 40. It’s a money-maker. Every female friend I have has had one. I’m the only one who hasn’t. I mean... it’s everywhere.
I was thinking more like... Rachel Maddow, Funny Guy
So much for principle.
LOL!
That works!
They should just skip the trial and write the check.
The Lawsuit Collector 😂
Re Dr’s performing hysterectomies on everyone, I had to beg to end my misery, in lefty MA no less. I’m sure they would give one yo a 13 yo girl without hesitation. Meanwhile, I hope these “ladies” lose bigly.
“Rachel Maddow, Nicolle Wallace and Chris Hayes may be called to witness stand”
Are any of them holding Biden’s golden ticket? No? Rut Roh Scooby!
Sue each of them individually and MSNBC. Put these a-holes out on the street and bankrupt MSNBC.
