The SCOTUS decision is quite an interesting one because underneath it lies something troubling., and I am sure the comedy hosts will be on it as some point. What is being dealt with is if a product can be sold at a specific level of quality but not be of that quality and the company be legally safe from any repercussions for selling inferior quality products. So to get this done a nonsensical boneless wings case is pushed forward to set the stage/precedent and then later and possibly on a quieter fashion, other cases would be put forward using the boneless wings as the got to case in order to reduce the quality of other products being sold. For instance a water supplier company could then claim that they should be able to be protected for supplying unfiltered water to areas where they are paid to provided filtered water and their justification being that not all filtered water is expected to be fully filtered therefore the quality of their water products can be lower then what they are paid to provide and be protected by the law to do so. There would then be a slow expanding of other adjacent companies looking to lower the bar for their products and in each of them the end consumer is the one paying the biggest price, as the consumer would still be forking over the money but would no longer be guaranteed the product of a quality comparable to that which they paid for and were expected to receive. So to anyone confused if this is a bad thing for the consumers, it most definitely is a bad turn of events!
It's official now: Ohio has become the "Florida of the North." Bring on the stories of "Ohio Man"! On yeah ....... JD Vance ...... couch ...... 'nuff said. 😒
The SCOTUS decision on presidential immunity is far more important, but for sheer stupidity it doesn't quite beat "people do not expect boneless chicken to really be boneless".
Rubbish. You might reasonably expect that bones have been removed. To expect that process to be 100% failure proof is unreasonable. Were' talking about the US food industry here, not a Swiss watch manufacturer. However, saying "Boneless is not bonelsess" is not the best way of communicating this.
why would 'people's expectations' even matter for this judgement? there should be laws or regulations stating what is allowed in certain food items. apparently, US food safety laws are a joke.
@@SebBrosig I think some people are confused because there have been at least 2 chicken wing cases that I am aware of. One is this case in Ohio where someone found bones in their "boneless chicken wings", and another in Chicago where "boneless chicken wings" were made out of chicken breast meat. Welcome to the USA, the land of endless lawsuits.

They're getting ready to write one of those funny books of silly laws. "Did you know? In Ohio, boneless chicken wings are allowed to have bones! They're not.... _WINGING_ around...." LOL
That's as bad as the Michigan SC ruling that a tire rotation was "performed" by switching the tires. Finger tightening the lug nuts was just an ooopsie, and in no way is the business liable for the wreck, with injuries, that resulted.
OMG That's so wrong! I bet there's a federal remedy available. Who regulates that stuff federally? The NHTSA? People have the right to expect a qualified tire service technician will tighten their lug nits, and tighten them to the correct torque. Maybe under state law that's not the case, I dunno. Just wrong. The chicken stuff in OH is all covered by federal law, so the state ruling has little meaning. State supreme court justices are often elected, so their rulings can be a little squirrely.
Someone leading a company that closed down its chicken processing facility in Missouri, bankrupting chicken farmers across the state? Or did you have someone else in mind?
The guy who brought the boneless chicken wing case had a bone cut inside his throat. He was unaware and it got infected and he had to have multiple surgeries.
The boneless chicken verdict is ridiculous. I mean, even taking this to the Ohio *supreme court* is painfully stupid. But it's just another layer of corporations > people. Words don't mean anything anymore.
ChatGPT says "No, boneless chicken does not contain any bones. The term "boneless" specifically means that the bones have been removed from the chicken meat. If you buy boneless chicken, you can expect it to be free of bones."
It's even more ridiculous if you consider someone person SUED because they EXPECTED a boneless chicken - only for the court to say "no you didn't expect that"...
Did the Ohio court not wonder why bother putting boneless on the package if there's neither requirement nor expectation (according to the court) that the contents of the package actually be boneless? Whole thing could easily be solved by instructing companies not to mislead consumers (rather than basically saying that consumers who believe packaging are stupid, which is essentially what the court did)

Some guy choked on a bone when he was scarfing down boneless chicken served to him at a restaurant. The bone was huge, like an inch and a half long. Hard to miss if you chew, but it's false advertising calling them boneless. This must be a ruling in that case.

I believe this to be a manufactured legal precedent, in which other industries and then lower the expectations and get legal protection for products that fail to reach the standard at which they are sold as or are commissioned to deliver to the end consumer.

Based on other news sites, the actual Ohio case involved a bone fragment that was left behind during the 'deboning process'.

Surprised you didn't also mention Doug Ford's tone-deaf joke that Ontarians "patient overflow" can go get their MRIs done at the vet, when people in Ontario are waiting months and up to a year for diagnostic imaging.
Didn't Doug's friends make a lot of money on land deals at taxpayer expense? Seems to be the only thing Conservative politicians are good at these days. They did the same thing in Saskatchewan.
In an emergency, you will get your diagnostic imaging when you go to the ER department at the hospitals in Ontario. Speaking from experience, both personally and as a healthcare professional.
@@Lauriej117 If you're in healthcare then I'm not sure what your point is. Get your non-emergency imaging done at the already stressed ER? That 12 hour wait won't hurt I guess. Ford is a corrupt cancer on Ontario.

I'm a Canadian who recently traveled to Toronto for an (epic!) concert. Overall, it was a great experience, and the public transportation was particularly great! HOWEVER. Leaving our hotel one day, I saw that someone had s*it against a wall on the sidewalk from a standing position. 🤢 How about accessible public toilets, safe injection sites, and HOUSING(!) rather than asking people not to shit in public spaces. Show some actual leadership, Doug.
Yup. Colbert missed the fact that this is the brother of the same guy he was joking about years ago for smoking crack and making crude public comments while being the Major of Toronto. The Fords are a disgrace; corrupt and hiding behind a friendly facade (Don't 'Folks' me you jerk!)
This is largely from people who are uncustomed to Canada's traditions and customs. While, I don't want to stereotype, it unfortunately has been linked to people who do this in their country of origin and are continuing to do it in Canada.
Ohio Supreme Court is protecting businesses from wrongful death lawsuits with that ruling. What did they get in exchange? Free boney nuggets for life? Cash, perhaps? All expenses paid vacation with the mistress? Or were they protecting their own holdings in companies with similar legal exposure?
I need to remind everyone that Doug Ford is the TWIN BROTHER of the infamous "crack smoking mayor of Toronto." Also, *not having public washrooms is a deliberate choice* that Toronto makes. Even in public parks, there is usually only one washroom for 1000's of weekend attendees. Wouldn't want the poors to be in public spaces too long, doncha know....
The vegetarian line is accurate. My only night in Chicago, all I wanted was a deep dish pizza, and I ordered a margherita, which I'm pretty sure is meant to be the same ingredients no matter where you go. But this one came with pepperoni.

"Foks, don't be poopin' on the beach." is the most work Doug's done for Ontario since he hitched himself to his trainwreck brother.

SCOTUS says corporations are people and they have enough money to buy any verdict they want.
It seems to me that in US, its the copanie, not the people, who are truly free.
Shoutout Mitt Romney from Breaking Bad and the original Malcolm In The Middle, the outsourcer- in- chief!
I wonder what holiday the Ohio Supremes got for that ruling..?
Or maybe it was just a years worth of boneless chicken to choke down.
The SCOTUS decision is quite an interesting one because underneath it lies something troubling., and I am sure the comedy hosts will be on it as some point.
What is being dealt with is if a product can be sold at a specific level of quality but not be of that quality and the company be legally safe from any repercussions for selling inferior quality products.
So to get this done a nonsensical boneless wings case is pushed forward to set the stage/precedent and then later and possibly on a quieter fashion, other cases would be put forward using the boneless wings as the got to case in order to reduce the quality of other products being sold.
For instance a water supplier company could then claim that they should be able to be protected for supplying unfiltered water to areas where they are paid to provided filtered water and their justification being that not all filtered water is expected to be fully filtered therefore the quality of their water products can be lower then what they are paid to provide and be protected by the law to do so.
There would then be a slow expanding of other adjacent companies looking to lower the bar for their products and in each of them the end consumer is the one paying the biggest price, as the consumer would still be forking over the money but would no longer be guaranteed the product of a quality comparable to that which they paid for and were expected to receive.
So to anyone confused if this is a bad thing for the consumers, it most definitely is a bad turn of events!
The Ohio Supreme Court decision was 4-3, with 4 Republicans ruling in favor and 3 Democrats ruling against. (Ohio judges run in partisan primaries.)

Surprised you didn't also mention Doug Ford's tone-deaf joke that Ontarians "patient overflow" can go get their MRIs done at the vet, when people in Ontario are waiting months and up to a year for diagnostic imaging.
Didn't Doug's friends make a lot of money on land deals at taxpayer expense? Seems to be the only thing Conservative politicians are good at these days. They did the same thing in Saskatchewan.
In an emergency, you will get your diagnostic imaging when you go to the ER department at the hospitals in Ontario. Speaking from experience, both personally and as a healthcare professional.
@@Lauriej117 If you're in healthcare then I'm not sure what your point is. Get your non-emergency imaging done at the already stressed ER? That 12 hour wait won't hurt I guess. Ford is a corrupt cancer on Ontario.
@@Lauriej117 Depends who agrees it's an emergency. I've known more than one person who was scared and went to Buffalo to pay for diagnostic business there.
@@erikt454 Usually deciding if it is an emergency is up to the doctor. But if the person is healthy enough to travel to Buffalo on their own for an MRI they are probably not having an emergency.

It's not "Canadians" pooping on the beach. It's people from other Countries that seem to think this is ok. Perhaps it's what they do in their Country. This is one aspect of why other Countries cultures &/or societies don't mesh. And never will.

Also boneless: the Great State of Ohio's US Senator's couch.

Was a bit disappointed that you guys didn't realize that our Ontario Premier, Doug Ford, was the older brother of our former Toronto Mayor, Rob Ford. Could have been an even funnier segment had you realized that. The joke possibilities are endless. LOL
They don’t care. Americans do not care that much about Canada, ever.
@@M_SC Yeah, but they really loved Rob for a bit, being the crazy, crack-smoking mayor of Toronto. Was a bit hit on late night shows for a while.
I remembered that. They made a big deal of it at the time when Doug Ford became Premier. It was quite the Canadian scandal.. but hilarious for late night hosts here.

He bounced a Czech.
I am sorry to inform you, but all zoo's are prisons.
Grand theft by way of pouch
Was too close to the infamous, elusive Joey Hoppa. Jumped at the chance to prove loyalty by taking a deal. The charges were related to pouch trafficking.
The kangaroo is named Jerry.
So you're asking, "what did Jerry do?"
Spread misinformation on social media
Jerry was framed for the pouch trafficking charges

The Ohio restaurant in the boneless chicken story is in our hometown :(
How did no one make the argument that just like "Chicken fingers" present the promise of being shaped like fingers as the end-product or chicken nuggets being shaped like nuggets, similarly "boneless" chicken presents a reasonable expectation that the end-product one is getting might possibly be f-king BONELESS??!!

But a supreme court, making that kind of decision, really gets me worried. Next they'll be saying that your 100% Angus ground beef, can contain rat meat. You know, like when America was "great".

I'm a Canadian who recently traveled to Toronto for an (epic!) concert. Overall, it was a great experience, and the public transportation was particularly great!
HOWEVER.
Leaving our hotel one day, I saw that someone had s*it against a wall on the sidewalk from a standing position. 🤢
How about accessible public toilets, safe injection sites, and HOUSING(!) rather than asking people not to shit in public spaces. Show some actual leadership, Doug.
This needs to be upvoted and highlighted a lot.
Hear hear! Love you Canada ❤❤❤
Yup. Colbert missed the fact that this is the brother of the same guy he was joking about years ago for smoking crack and making crude public comments while being the Major of Toronto. The Fords are a disgrace; corrupt and hiding behind a friendly facade (Don't 'Folks' me you jerk!)
This is largely from people who are uncustomed to Canada's traditions and customs. While, I don't want to stereotype, it unfortunately has been linked to people who do this in their country of origin and are continuing to do it in Canada.

Why not? We let people get away for four years with saying Donald Trump was "democratically elected."
Regarding the boneless wings with bones, I'm guessing that the Ohio Supreme Court looked at "seedless watermelon" as their comparison for reference.
As an Ohioan who has said this for years I would like to reiterate. WTF is wrong with people from Ohio. 🤣
Let’s be clear here. There is a problem with pooping on the beach in Canada, however it is NOT Canadians who are pooping on the beach lol 😂

Ohio Supreme Court is protecting businesses from wrongful death lawsuits with that ruling. What did they get in exchange? Free boney nuggets for life? Cash, perhaps? All expenses paid vacation with the mistress? Or were they protecting their own holdings in companies with similar legal exposure?

I need to remind everyone that Doug Ford is the TWIN BROTHER of the infamous "crack smoking mayor of Toronto." Also, *not having public washrooms is a deliberate choice* that Toronto makes. Even in public parks, there is usually only one washroom for 1000's of weekend attendees. Wouldn't want the poors to be in public spaces too long, doncha know....

The vegetarian line is accurate. My only night in Chicago, all I wanted was a deep dish pizza, and I ordered a margherita, which I'm pretty sure is meant to be the same ingredients no matter where you go. But this one came with pepperoni.
Fun fact: in Germany, a pizza that comes with "pepperoni" (although spelled "peperoni") would still be considered vegetarian. In English you would refer to it as "chili". However, the pizza would not be advertised as a "margherita".
Well this world's all sorts of confusing. At least we've got Google Translate. That app's a godsend.

Read my comment again: where did I state that a "pepperoni pizza" would be called "chili" in English? I stated that the German word "peperoni" (not "pepperoni pizza") is "chili" in English.
