Suit against Rachel Maddow tossed by Judge per CA SLAPP Law

I really need a political blog, but I'm stashing this here.  Data Security implication of this article? Oh, I don't know:

How about Right-Wing News Organization (One American News Network),  favored by Trump,  is openly employing actual Russian Propagandists, suing A-list journalists who report it, and getting SLAPPed by a judge for trying to use the courts to hide it.

They didn't try to refute that her statement wasn't true, unfortunately, but let's see what MSNBC does about it. In case it hits the bit bucket:

"OAN sued after Maddow offered her commentary on a Daily Beast article that said the news network employed a "Kremlin-paid journalist." The journalist, Kristian Rouz, had been working for both OAN and the Kremlin-owned Sputnik, the latter of which was determined to be a participant in Russia's 2016 election interference effort."
