Dr Brian Morley, an ex-medical director, has filed a defamation lawsuit against John Oliver, alleging that the comedian misrepresented his statements in a Last Week Tonight episode. Oliver allegedly took Morley's comment regarding patient care out of context, implying he endorsed neglect. Morley claims this portrayal harmed his reputation and sparked public outrage against him. The suit seeks damages exceeding $75,000 and criticizes Oliver's comments as misleading, stating they were designed to create sensationalism for entertainment rather than truth.
Defendants falsely told millions of viewers of their show, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, that Dr Morley testified in a Medicaid hearing that he thinks it's okay if people have shit on them for days.
The false accusations Defendants made were so heinous that John Oliver felt justified in telling his millions of viewers: fuck that doctor with a rusty canoe. I hope he gets tetanus of the balls.
