All these cited claims seem political and extreme to me. I can't find a non-political example where the judgement this extreme.

Depp v Herd defamation was around $10m.

There was a single victim in Depp vs Herd.

The acts of defamation were extreme, clear cut, repetitive and devoid of remorse. I for one like knowing that if someone ruins my reputation with cruel lies in such a malicious and relentless way that they may face extreme consequences.
