Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte, have filed a personal lawsuit against far-right podcaster Candace Owens in Tennessee. The move follows a Delaware court ruling that it had jurisdiction only over Owens' corporations registered in that state, not over Owens herself. The Macrons' suit concerns comments Owens made about Brigitte Macron. The Tennessee filing aims to establish personal jurisdiction over Owens in a venue where she is said to have business ties. The case will test how U.S. courts apply jurisdiction rules to defamation claims against media personalities.
