"Mr. Kennedy is an anti-vaccine activist and a conspiracy theorist.". Gee that sounds defamatory, doesn't it?.
The author would have to prove Kennedy is against all vax, and that it isn't actually a conspiracy perpetuated by multiple entities.
If only 99% are doing it, could any logical and reasonable conclusion be reached?
It doesn't matter. The speaker doesn't have an effect on the objective truth of a statement. It's a logical impossibility. Otherwise, a statement could be true when uttered by one individual and the very same statement could then be false when said by another.
