SLAPP Suits
On November 10, 2019, John Oliver put out a segment on his show, called "SLAPP Suits". Oliver began by recapping the legal fight so far. Oliver said that even though he won the lawsuit, his insurance company tripled his monthly fee and that his show paid  to the show's lawyers. Oliver then argued that Bob Murray never intended to win the case. Instead, Oliver said that Murray wanted to scare HBO and him into silence. This led Oliver into the main point of the segment—SLAPP suits, which are lawsuits designed to scare people into not saying bad things about someone else, even if they are true. Oliver pointed out that Murray has filed at least nine lawsuits against news companies and journalists who have said bad things about him, including the Huffington Post and The New York Times. Oliver argued that Murray has also sued those who aren't lucky enough to have the support of a large company like HBO and their own insurance. He then suggested that because those people might be scared of Murray, they won't say anything bad about him. Oliver argued that this led to almost nobody in the press writing about two sexual harassment cases against Murray. One of these cases involved Murray asking a woman employee to get on her hands and knees and find a kidney stone that Murray had passed and lost.
