"The court-confirmed b.s. artist? "

That was just lawyer speak used in the defeat of a defamation suit.

Just like Tucker Carlson.

Here's the extra detail that you omitted in your short quote.

Maddow was not laughing in the Trump Indictment segment.

“The medium through which the contested statement was made supports Maddow’s argument that a reasonable viewer would not conclude the statement implies an assertion of fact,” Smith wrote.

Maddow’s tone throughout the segment — where she laughed, shook her head and acted “astonished” at the news revealed by The Daily Beast article — also bolstered her claim a reasonable viewer would understand she was not breaking news, Smith wrote.

He added: “Maddow’s astonishment and the segment’s tone of ‘surprise and glee’ were derived from the news presented in The Daily Beast article — a story that Herring does not allege is defamatory.”

Smith also rejected OAN’s contention the Ninth Circuit panel should only consider the challenged six-word “Russian propaganda” phrase, noting the context provided by Maddow’s commentary before and after she made the statement disclosed all relevant facts and contained colorful language."

Wouldn't your comment be an ad hom under the @LoadedDog rules ?

"Just like Tucker Carlson."

Who also presents in a jocular fashion.

Good for the goose, they are opinion presenters, not factual.

Both should be taken as 'colourful' spin merchants.
