In April 2024, a claim began to spread across X (formerly Twitter) that former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines had won a $10 million “defamation lawsuit” against “The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg.
“Who’s glad she finally got Justice?” one such post on the social media platform said. Attached to the post was a graphic that asked people to leave a thumbs-up if they were glad Gaines “got justice,” along with a headline that repeated the claim.
Breaking: Riley Gaines Wins $10 Million ‘Defamation Lawsuit’ Against Whoopi Goldberg
In a narrative that has threaded its way through courts, television studios, and the ever-buzzing hive of social media, Riley Gaines, a name now synonymous with legal victory, has ascended the proverbial podium once again. This time, she is not just basking in the ethereal glow of athletic accomplishment but is swathed in the vindication that comes from a triumph of a different sort—a whopping $10 million defamation lawsuit win against Whoopi Goldberg.
We found Facebook posts that included the article, as well as a YouTube video that nearly copied the SpaceXMania article word-for-word.
