Rachel Maddow’s $30 Million Dollar Mistake

MSNBC host Rachel Maddow might have cost the liberal network millions of dollars.

Alongside her colleagues Nicolle Wallace and Chris Hayes, Maddow is accused of making 39 “verifiably false” statements about a Georgia doctor who they dubbed the “Uterus Collector.”

The hosts claimed that Dr. Mahendra Amin performed hysterectomies on women at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) center in 2020 based on a whistleblower account from a nurse named Dawn Wooten, who allegedly worked at the facility during the Trump Administration. 

According to the 108-page summary published by Judge Lisa Godbey Wood of the Southern District of Georgia, Maddow and her MSNBC colleagues gave an on-air report after NBC reporters first published the story in September 2020 despite skepticism.
