@Kinnison If Ohio is one of the many states that allow 'group defamation suits' this is an example of where it applies. Proving defamation and damage here is a slam dunk - JD is on video saying he knew it was a lie. The bomb threats and other threat well document damages. This could potentially top Dominion vs Fox in $ amounts.
