On the Today show, Amber Heard described the 'humiliating and horrible' experience of seeing crowds outside the courtroom holding signs reading 'Burn the witch' and 'Death to Amber.'
in which she does not name Depp, was protected speech, since she primarily intended for the article to advocate for legislation on behalf of domestic-abuse victims. In it, she called herself “a public figure representing domestic abuse” and one who “felt the full force of our culture’s wrath for women who speak out.” A jury of seven found her liable for defamation over this statement as well as two others, including the headline, “I spoke up against sexual violence—and faced our culture’s wrath.
“I would not blame the average person for looking at this and how it’s been covered and not think that it is Hollywood brats at their worst,” Heard said to Guthrie. “But what people don’t understand is that it’s actually so much bigger than that.” Guthrie flagged that the First Amendment “doesn’t protect lies that amount to defamation,” and Heard returned with fairly decent summary of her original op-ed: “It’s a freedom to speak truth to power…. and that’s all I spoke. And I spoke it to power, and I paid the price.”
When asked if Depp’s team “had better lawyers,” Heard answered, “I will say his lawyers did a certainly better job of distracting the jury from the real issues.” And when Guthrie asked about some of the tapes that showed Heard in a rough light, either making fun of Depp or referring to a moment when she allegedly hit him, she said, “I did do and say horrible, regrettable things throughout my relationship. I behaved in horrible, almost unrecognizable to myself ways. I have so much regret.
“It was very, very toxic,” Heard added, referring to their relationship. “We were awful to each other. I made a lot of mistakes. A lot of mistakes. But I’ve always told the truth.”
