The claim that country music singer Jason Aldean sued the co-hosts of ABC’s “The View” for defamation originated from a satirical website. The Dunning Kruger Times describes itself as part of a network of “parody, satire and tomfoolery,” adding that “everything on this website is fiction” (ghostarchive.org/archive/Rybzc). There are no credible media reports of Aldean having filed such a suit in July 2023, when the claim began circulating online (ghostarchive.org/archive/KP5ah). A spokesperson for “The View” did not provide comment, while a representative for BBR Music Group, the agency that represents Aldean, did not respond to a request for comment. The claim stems from the satirical website Dunning Kruger Times.
