栗正傑為退役國軍少將,頻繁參與政論節目發表軍事與政治評論。鍾年晃為知名節目主持人,以犀利言論著稱。兩人曾因政治立場差異在媒體上多次公開論爭。
前國軍少將栗正傑在政論節目指颱風針對賴清德本命區台南,更稱國軍因漢光演習未救災,名嘴鍾年晃在節目重砲批「去中國像龜兒子、人渣」,栗正傑怒告求償100萬元,但法官認為鍾的言論是針對公共議題進行針砭與價值判斷,判栗正傑敗訴。
判決指出,退役少將栗正傑於114年7月間在「新聞大白話」節目中,針對丹娜絲颱風來襲時「國軍沒辦法救災」,並稱「選在漢光演習前一天颱風來找你,是不是天公伯長眼了,針對你們大罷免來的、針對賴清德本命區台南直奔而去」等語。

鍾年晃聽聞後,隨後於「94要客訴」節目中反擊,稱此為「標準紅色力量心態」,在台灣享盡健保與退休俸好處卻罵台灣,「去到中國的時候乖得跟龜兒子一樣,什麼都不敢講,真是人渣」,並轉述綠委指栗正傑為「不知感恩的東西」等語。
栗正傑認為鍾年晃惡意進行人身攻擊、嚴重貶損其名譽與人格尊嚴,提告要求鍾年晃賠償精神慰撫金100萬元。高雄地方法院審理時,鍾年晃辯稱,國防部在颱風來襲前早已完成一級開設,並預置上萬兵力與機具救援,台灣事實查核中心報告也證實國軍救災未受漢光演習影響,但栗正傑身為退伍將領與頻繁發表意見的公眾人物,公開造謠且幸災樂禍,其言論屬可受公評之事,批評並未逾越合理範疇。
法官認為,栗正傑身為退伍少將及知名軍事評論者,自願進入公共言論市場,對於社會輿論的監督與檢驗應具有較一般民眾更高的容忍度;鍾年晃使用「龜兒子」、「人渣」等用語雖尖銳且負面,但發言背景是針對國軍救災、災害應變等公共議題進行針砭與價值判斷,並非無端脫離事實基礎的人格全盤否定與單純辱罵,考量言論自由對於促進公領域論辯之貢獻,難認鍾年晃構成侵權,因此駁回栗正傑之訴,可上訴。
