Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard trial
After six weeks, the contentious defamation trial between actors and former spouses Johnny Depp and Amber Heard went to a jury Friday afternoon. The jury is expected to resume their deliberations Tuesday morning. Depp filed a lawsuit against his ex-wife over a 2018 op-ed she wrote in The Washington Post, in which she referred to herself as a public figure representing domestic abuse. Depp, seeking $50 million, claims that even though Heard did not name him, the piece damaged his reputation and career because she was referring to the period two years prior, when she filed for divorce and a restraining order; Depp has denied all claims of abuse. Heard then countersued Depp for $100 million after his lawyer said her allegations were false in three statements in the press. The trial is being held in the Fairfax County Courthouse, since The Post’s servers and printing presses are in Fairfax County. The Post is not a defendant in the case. The trial also came after Depp lost a libel case in 2020 in which he sued the British tabloid the Sun, and its executive editor, Dan Wootton, for publishing a story referring to Depp as a “wife beater.” The jury is deciding two verdicts at once as it deliberates over both Depp and Heard’s defamation claims.
What has the Internet reaction been like?
Depp fans have dominated social media, using a few specific hashtags to voice support for the actor and to hurl insults at Heard. The most popular hashtag, #JusticeforJohnnyDepp, has received more than 15 billion views on TikTok. The somewhat corresponding #JusticeforAmberHeard, meanwhile, has only 51 million views — and many of those videos are negative toward Heard, despite the hashtag. Many videos using these hashtags are supercuts from trial footage which are edited to make Heard’s accusations appear unfounded.The hashtags became part of the trial when computer programmer and social media forensic expert Ron Schnell testified that more than 2 million negative tweets toward Heard posted between April 2020 and January 2021 — with one out of four of them referencing Depp lawyer Adam Waldman.
