Despite arguments to the contrary made Bull on this show, there are many forms of speech not protected by the First Amendment. The TV personality's constant accusations against the stepfather before he has been put a trial would make her liable for slander, not to mention that, if the stepfather ever were put on trial, her show could have prejudiced potential jurors. The case of Sheppard v. Maxwell established that prejudicial press or media coverage can in fact violate one's right to a fair trial.
Early on, Bull quotes George Washington, which Benny later repeats. Cast member Chris Jackson played Washington in the original Broadway production of Lin-Manuel Miranda's "Hamilton".
