Networks have guests on the air all the time that they disagree with. I guarantee you that includes lots of examples where they don't correct them on air. If we dig into all of the e-mails at CNN and MSNBC, I have no doubt that we would find a similar dynamic at work for a lot of their on-air hosts.
If Trump can't sue because he is a public figure, then it's not hard to find individuals who have been slandered and who have suffered real damages as a result. The computer repair shop owner who first brought the laptop into the public domain would also be one of them. He had to abandon his shop and go into hiding. Rittenhouse suffered massively from all of the media lies about him and being incorrectly labeled as a White Supremacist.
Your statement about intent did not apply to Alex Jones. It shouldn't apply to anyone else either.
Trump also probably has a very reasonable case that his private businesses have suffered as a result of all of this lies about him. Being a "public figure" shouldn't be a free pass for someone to slander and destroy you. I admit that I don't know how the law works in this type of case though.
Did Dominion even try to prove that they suffered financially? Did their revenue crash?
