MSNBC set for high-stakes defamation trial in ‘uterus collector’ lawsuit
Fox News
MSNBC is heading to trial in a $30 million "uterus collector" lawsuit over "verifiably false" statements that a Georgia doctor performed unnecessary hysterectomies at an ICE center.

Plaintiff Dr. Mahendra Amin, an obstetrician gynecologist who provided medical care to women detained at the Irwin County Detention Center, was accused in 2020 of performing unnecessary hysterectomies by a nurse at the facility who made a whistleblower complaint.
NBC published an article despite initial skepticism from the network’s standards department and MSNBC quickly followed with a series of on-air reports in which the doctor was often referred to as the "uterus collector" on September 15, 2020.
