Restoring public faith in the U.S. mainstream media again

I’m cross posting this to ask you to clarify your specific statements about whether the media misrepresented Powell’s defense:

So first, her attorney said:

No reasonable person would conclude that the statements were truly statements of fact,” writes her attorney Lawrence Joseph in a motion to dismiss the case against Powell.

Now they are saying (from this post):

“I’d like to clarify what actually was presented to the court. First, let me be clear: any suggestion that “no reasonable person” would believe Ms. Powell or her comments on the election is false.

This is not a gotcha, nor me trying to be cryptic. I’m asking you to explain to me your earlier statement about misrepresentation by the media on this specific detail. I’m perfectly willing to accept that I’m missing some important nuance in what you meant when you made that claim.
Please point out my error.
