Also, Rachel Maddow just won a similar lawsuit because the judge said any reasonable audience would infer that she was talking about her opinion, not facts.

The difference is that it was ruled that way for Maddow due to her tone and the context in which she said it in within the segment. It wasn't just "Her entire show is nothing but opinions." The ruling was "In this particular case, she's giving a clear opinion based on other facts which were presented, and her tone/the context makes it clear she's not presenting it as a fact."

Tucker would have a much tougher time with that argument.
