On Eve of Trial, NBC Settles $30 Million Defamation Suit With Obstetrician That Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, and Niccole Wallace Repeatedly and Recklessly Defamed as a "Uterus Collector" Who Butchers Women and Steals the Uteruses of Immigrant Women

Note that this was settled by NBCUniversal. Yes, they're spinning MSNBC off, but they haven't sold it yet.

NBC defamation settlement with Georgia doctor finalized in court following MSNBC's 'uterus collector' coverage

Dr. Mahendra Amin sued NBCUniversal for $30 million over coverage by MSNBC hosts Rachel Maddow, Nicolle Wallace and Chris Hayes

NBCUniversal has finalized its defamation settlement with a Georgia doctor who was repeatedly called a "uterus collector" by MSNBC.
NBCUniversal, the parent company of NBC News and MSNBC (the latter is currently being spun off as a separate company), settled the $30 million lawsuit filed by Georgia gynecologist Dr. Mahendra Amin. Amin who was the subject of a report claiming he performed unnecessary hysterectomies at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) center.
Both parties struck the settlement in February, but the lawsuit was officially dismissed Friday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Georgia. The terms of the settlement were not publicly disclosed.
"We are pleased that Dr. Amin is able to move on from his years-long litigation against NBCUniversal," Amin's attorneys, Stacey Evans and Scott Grubman, told Fox News Digital. "It is unfortunate that he had to sue to get confirmation of what was known all along--that he did not perform mass hysterectomies on women detained at Irwin County Detention Center. We are glad that the judge found those statements false as a matter of law because, in fact, Dr. Amin performed only two hysterectomies, both of which were medically necessary and consented to by the patients."
"Dr. Amin is a dedicated physician who has dedicated his entire career to serving underserved communities. The recklessness of NBCUniversal to try to paint him as an evil doctor was disgusting and we are glad they finally settled the case," they added.
Representatives from NBCUniversal and MSNBC did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Of course not. One again, the leftwing media teaches us the right response to media inquiries-- silence and stonewalling. Give them nothing.

Everyone, take notice, NBC "News" is telling you what to do when "journalists" email you: Tell them to f*** off with all deliberate speed.

Amin was the subject of an NBC News article in September 2020, which cited a whistleblower's claim that he was performing unneeded hysterectomies while providing medical care to women detained at the Irwin County Detention Center.

MSNBC quickly followed with a series of on-air reports on "Deadline: White House," "All In with Chris Hayes" and "The Rachel Maddow Show," all running with the "uterus collector" label for Amin.
Amin filed a lawsuit against parent company NBCUniversal, alleging he was falsely portrayed as "an abusive, unethical, and dishonest physician who treated and operated on immigrant women in an abusive fashion, without consent, and motivated by profit instead of quality healthcare."

Judge Lisa Godbey Wood of the Southern District of Georgia previously ruled that a jury could reasonably find actual malice and the trial was set to begin April 22, in Waycross, Georgia. In light of the settlement agreement, the court canceled the scheduled trial.

Why would they have to prove actual malice?

"NBC investigated the whistleblower letter's accusations; that investigation did not corroborate the accusations and even undermined some; NBC republished the letter's accusations anyway," Judge Wood wrote last year in a 108-page summary.
...
Judge Wood previously ruled that multiple statements were proven false, noting "undisputed evidence has established" that "there were no mass hysterectomies or high numbers of hysterectomies at the facility," "Dr. Amin performed only two hysterectomies on female detainees from the ICDC," and the doctor is not a "uterus collector."

By the way, only Fox and conservative outlets are covering this. The Protection Racket Media that claims to be Servants of the Truth who report the facts without fear or favor are, get this, suppressing the story.

What do you call an industry that covers up for known bad actors in that industry?

You'd call that industry "corrupt" and in need of congressional investigation, wouldn't you?

Below, Megyn Kelly discusses this latest proof of the media's utter corruption, derangement, and viciousness.

She plays audio of Maddow claiming, WITHOUT EVIDENCE, that this doctor with a good record is a Mengele-esque "uterus collector" stealing the sex organs of immigrant women at 1:04.

Stu Begere (?) makes the point that the media no longer even pretends to verify the defamations they run for hate-views. He says their only standard of "journalism" is "do I want this to be true or not?"

Obviously, they wanted to do a hit piece on ICE, so it was True In Spirit.

Also, of course, barely anyone watches them any longer and the only reason their braindead savage viewers watch at all is precisely for this kind of red-meat WITHOUT EVIDENCE conspiracy theory slander.

Remember when Rachel Maddow claimed that a gay man who was found dead must have been murdered by right-wing Bush-supporting bigots? He had committed suicide -- but Rachel got all sorts of high ratings for vomiting up her WITHOUT EVIDENCE conspiracy theories.

Fear, panic, and conspiracy theories are her brand. Remember when this BlueAnon Queen of Conspiracies pumped up leftwing neuroticism (and her own ratings) by hallucinating a Russian attack in the US energy grid?

Right in the middle of a polar vortex, to better chill her viewers' blood and get Panic Views.

Another 30 million down the drain for defamation. Is Rachel Maddow worth it?

They never will. I was much more libertarian / didn't really think about abortion when I was younger.

I read the entire PA Grand Jury report on Gosnell, and, well -- changed my views on abortion, that's for sure.

Reading the grisly details and seeing how Gosnell truly didn't see what he was doing wrong, and the national abortion people saying "well, this would all be legal and fine if he just injected the babies hearts with poison BEFORE delivering them instead of snipping their necks after they were delivered" kind of changed my thinking.

As it would for the vast majority of people who I don't think really spend much time thinking about what abortion really is.

Posted by: Donald Trump and Magic Johnson at April 11, 2025 12:22 PM (JCZqz)

69 There's more to this story. The (false) allegations shouted by partisan retards like Maddow were taken from a "whistleblower" report from a nurse working with Dr. Amin.

The report makes shockingly allegations about Amin, including that he was gutting "every patient he saw," taking out the wrong ovaries and organs, and flat-out calls him a Mengele. The "organ collector" quote is from the report. All Maddow and the others were doing was duckspeaking the report (apparently without any investigation into whether it was true or not).

So ... who is this nurse?? She was Ground Zero for the whole entire thing. It's clear she was just lying about the doctor, almost certainly for political reasons. Or does she even exist at all??

Neuroticism is the trait disposition to experience negative affects, including anger, anxiety, self‐consciousness, irritability, emotional instability, and depression1. Persons with elevated levels of neuroticism respond poorly to environmental stress, interpret ordinary situations as threatening, and can experience minor frustrations as hopelessly overwhelming.

Since cutting cable, it's more "I wrapped aluminum foil around the base of the bird feeder, but the squirrels still get in! Damn squirrels, I ought to shoot them!" type old people stuff.

We were at his sisters house (my aunt) probably a year ago and fox news was on in the background and afterwards he said "I can't believe I used to watch that crap. How does anyone sit there with that going all day? No wonder people are so worked up all the time."

Glad to see he caught on.

No.

They said some remedy has to come somehow (there's no mention at all of bringing the guy back to the US), that the lower court judge has to find a way to come up with something that respects Article II powers.

Worst case scenario actions based on that order are Trump gets the guy from El Salvador and dumps him in Guantanamo with a direct flight.

But from the moment she wakes up until she goes to sleep, she's got Fox News blaring.

That's her entire life. It's depressing to go over there.

But anyways, it's the same thing -- "Hey, hows it going? How are the grandkids!" "well, I'm scared they're going to be transitioned to boys! Did you hear what's going on out there?" (or whatever was on Fox News that day)

I've heard an interesting theory on this and why Q Anon and things like that were so big with the Boomers.

These people lived most of their lives believing the government worked like they were taught in Civics class.

Then the Trump 1.0 / Covid / Biden years showed that that was not really the case, and their brains melted.

Whereas people who grew up with the internet and in the post-9/11 world grew up with a much more ... accepting attitude that things are fake and gay. They more eased in to it than getting confronted with everything being fake and gay overnight after believing everything was real and not gay for the first 40 or 50 or whatever years of their lives.

I don't know, seems plausible to me.

No. That would be illegal for the Court to do.

The Court mandated the Executive must 'Facilitate' the effort to return the illegal.

The Court can't mandate the action in regards to a Foreign Nation. That's precluded by separation of powers.

They are ordered to seek his return. But they can't be ordered to force his return.

154 A few years ago my hospital chain had a series of all-hands employee meetings to ask us to stop murdering our customers. We were killing one a quarter and it was getting expensive.

In fairness, most of them arose from us trusting the patient to know their insulin dosages. The solution was to not ask them but rather to call their doctors.

But that makes as much sense as anything.

Like I can both believe that I doubt W had anything to do with 9/11, but that it's very likely that there were American citizens who had some involvement in either the act or the ensuing, ahem, cover-up.

Could have been as simple as "we don't want to rock the boat with the Saudis", or could have been "we needed a pretext to keep the military industrial complex going after the fall of the Berlin Wall."

Or, maybe none of that happened and 9/11 was what it seemed to be.

But I don't believe there's someone planning all of this out in advance.

Similarly there does seem a mental intransigence among older Republicans that the Eisenhower era never ended and that if we just talk softly and reason with the progressive left everything will be just fine and they can get back to their regularly scheduled weekend boating. If only that ruffian TRUMP hasn't said "pussy," why by golly...

All of which you looked forward to because it's "healthcare for women," you understand.

Hubby and I have dealt with realtors several times due to corporate moves. Most of them sucked.

We had a house in South Carolina to sell last year and decided not to use a realtor. We have had some that came in and would say "you need to change this or that,
the paint color is wrong, etc.

Fuck that noise, they want the sellers to make it easy for them to get their commission.

We sold our house last year to Open Door and it was a smooth process. The price was acceptable and we didn't have to deal with a worthless realtor who would tell us what we had to do.

228 Real estate agents are pretty useless. Their only value is access to MLS. And now post court ruling you no longer need to pay 4-6% for that access. A couple of thousand will do it.

Then hire an attorney for $2k to do the paper work. $4k instead of 4-6% of a $500k home sale.

229 Apparently wholesale egg prices have started to decline sharply. Takes a bit for such movements to be reflected in retail prices.

Overall inflation metrics are all looking good, some surprisingly so. Of course, some of them are the same metrics that obviously dramatically understated the reality of inflation for most people for years now. Compensation/wages also moving up for first time since last summer. Early/limited signs, but I'll be the "shock" of radically different, rational, growth-enabling economic policies is at work, and will more than balance out the "shock" of tariff impact.

231 How the media lays their trap is to contact you with an ingratiating even flattering note or phone call, outlining their best intentions and their need for your insights or thoughts to help them better understand an issue. They are only looking for fodder for their narrative.

232 Trump dumps the guy in Guantanamo for the purposes of both ending the suit and giving the left a big middle finger.

Absolutely not.

IIRC, Gitmo was ruled under US jurisdiction.
Meaning, the court can order him back to the US.

If anything at all, send him to Panama.

But best response is,
"he was here illegally. The order he not be removed to Salvador was a executive court immigration judge. We , the executive, have revoked that order. The end. Fuck off."

When I had surgery on an arm for a broken bone they did indeed write on both arms before they put me out. The tech did the writing for me perhaps because i couldn't use one hand.

They will actually put a mark on you where they're supposed to do surgery. They did this to both my wife and daughter in their respective situations in the prep room awaiting surgery.

Then the surgery nurse assistant wipes it away with an alcohol swab, to sterilize the area. And promptly forgets if it was on the left or right arm, leg, side of torso, whatever.

236 Like I can both believe that I doubt W had anything to do with 9/11, but that it's very likely that there were American citizens who had some involvement in either the act or the ensuing, ahem, cover-up.

Could have been as simple as "we don't want to rock the boat with the Saudis", or could have been "we needed a pretext to keep the military industrial complex going after the fall of the Berlin Wall."

***

Probably both. We know Saudi intelligence within the U.S. was paying for some of the hijackers. Probably not to attack us, but it would have been inconvenient for the truth to come out.

Also, “Able Danger”, where DIA basically figured out there was an attack coming and got told to eff off by the CIA.

GWB is still a traitor for covering it up. I don’t think he knew an attack was coming, but he moved to protect the intelligence agencies and our Saudi “friends” instead of being forthright with the public.

Depends on the jurisdiction, the housing/rental market, etc. In big cities it's often hard to sell or buy -- or even rent -- a place without a realtor. It's a cartel and the cartel favors the cartel.

Facially true but if he wanted to push it he could allege those are pretexts for race and religion discrimination. He's one of those Christian white guys, you see, not one of those white guys who's a credit to his race, and we don't want his kind in the neighborhood. Use their own rules against them.

Basically the response says no, we're not ready to do what you say, and insist on briefing you on the situation before we respond. And, BTW, the subject of the case is a foreign national in the custody of a foreign sovereign state.

252 About half a century or so ago it was common in some American cultures for women in their 40’s to have a hysterectomy mainly as a form of birth control [popular with Catholics to avoid angering the Pope] for either fibroids or dysfunctional uterine bleeding. The docs who seemed to perform the majority of these were well known in their respective communities, some with a bit less than high approval from other OB/GYN, who usually weren’t catholic, for some reason.

Posted by: epador at April 11, 2025 01:49 PM (UOvnW)

253 For those not quick to see my point, I would be interested to know the religious status of the hysterectomized illegals. I assume all the patients wanted a hysterectomy. Who knows, maybe they came in and got caught so they could get one for free. Now say 3 Hail Mary’s.
