John Oliver Sued by Health Insurance Executive Over On-Air Rant

Comedian John Oliver has been sued by a health insurance executive that he excoriated in an on-air rant.

“F--- that doctor with a rusty canoe. I hope he gets tetanus of the balls,” Oliver said in an episode of Last Week Tonight that aired in April 2024.

The expletives came moments after Oliver said that Dr. Brian Morley “thinks it’s okay if people have s--- on them for days” in reference to testimony from a 2017 Medicaid hearing about home nursing visits.
