Fox News Settles for $787.5 Million

[nobody's_hero]

Fox's lawyers must have thought there was evidence of damage. Over half a billion isn't what you pay just to get rid of a nuisance.

If I had half a billion I could pay to get liberals to F' off, I'd do it. 1) I don't have that much money and 2) liberals never leave you alone, so . . .

Dominion voting systems had sued Fox News for $1.6 billion, claiming defamation about statements surrounding the 2020 election outcome and Dominion voting systems. Today Dominion and Fox settled the lawsuit for $787 million.
The lawsuit itself is odd in that both the plaintiff and the defendant carried the same political motivation within it. As an outcome of ideology, Fox News wanted to cement the 2020 election as clear Biden victory, the same position as Dominion. The settlement provides that narrative to U.S. MSM corporate news. The same corporate news who pushed the fraudulent Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy theory, without accountability.



(VIA ABC) “Fox has admitted to telling lies about Dominion,” Dominion Voting Systems CEO John Poulos said outside the courthouse following the announcement of a settlement. It was not immediately clear where this admission took place, beyond Fox’s statement that “We acknowledge the Court’s rulings finding certain claims about Dominion to be false” — or whether Fox News had agreed to a more formal acknowledgement in a public way.

Fox News Says: “We are pleased to have reached a settlement of our dispute with Dominion Voting Systems,” Fox News officials said in a statement after an agreement had been reached. “We acknowledge the Court’s rulings finding certain claims about Dominion to be false. This settlement reflects FOX’s continued commitment to the highest journalistic standards.”
“We are hopeful that our decision to resolve this dispute with Dominion amicably, instead of the acrimony of a divisive trial, allows the country to move forward from these issues,” the statement said.

Have a friend who has broken from reality with too much conspiracy’s, told me Biden’s sister was married to Dominion’s CEO

powers that be certainly prey on us with mix of facts &fiction

Private equity owned Dominion, 3 steps ahead of average Joe

I didn't say anything at all about who I think "runs" what (whatever that is supposed to mean).

I rebutted the false claim that Disney owns FOX News - because it doesn't.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Occam's Banana again.

That meme never gets old.

Fox was in on the steal.
This whole lawsuit was done so they could settle to create the narrative there was no cheating.

Trump was in on the steal. He didn't want the inevitable collapse of America to be on his watch. Why do you think he and his lawyer went with the kooky "Venezuela owns Dominion" lie when they could have simply joined in Democrat Stacey Abrams ongoing lawsuit that said Dominion Voting Machines stole the 2016 election from her?

If only Sydney Powell had just released the Kraken...

Instead she released the Karen.

I clicked on this to laugh at all those who still think there was voting machine fraud. I was not disapointed.

 

[Anti Globalist]

Remember when Democrats voiced concerns about voting machines? Funny how Dominion never sued them for that.

Funny how Dominion never sued them for that.

....or WON $$$

LOL

LOL

LOL all you want to but in your heart you know it makes sense. Why the hell would Trump tell Bob Woodward of all people that he knew COVID was going to be worse than he was telling the public but he didn't want people to "panic?" That's political suicide and you know it. Trump threw the 2020 election. And Trump went along with EVERYTHING Fauci told him to do from square one even though Dr. Redfield, head of the CDC, was going against Fauci.

Not to defend SS's knob-slobbering on Trump, but I think you're giving Trump too much credit. Trump never thinks that far ahead. He actually had some pretty good instincts, but he just listened to whoever told him what he wanted to hear. Likewise, he told Woodward what he thought would make him more likeable.

or... Heinlein... or Rand... or Hume... or Napoleon... or...

 

[acptulsa]

Meh. I'm tired of the evil or stupid? debate. Either disqualifies Trump from ever getting my vote.

It doesn't matter. We need better.

Um, yes they do. Disney purchased Fox.

Keep talking Zippy clone.

Maybe read things before linking them. That article says exactly what Disney bought.

Fox Corp and 21st century fox are not the same thing.

Yeah...but that requires stupidity or the part of more than just Trump. There is also Sydney Powell and Rudy Giuliani. Rudy is a lot of things but he's not stupid. He could have gotten Trump out of this Stormy Daniels mess early on but Trump wanted to pretend he hadn't had sex with that woman because conservatives, including Sean Hannity, where calling him out on lying to them about that. [MENTION=65299]Swordsmyth[/MENTION] wants to pretend that everybody but Trump is in on the conspiracy. That simply makes no fvcking sense. Tucker Carlson called Sydney Powell out on her Kraken bvllshyt. He told her to come on his show and present the evidence. She never did and then got mad at Tucker. Tucker has been 10 times a better advocate for liberty than Trump. Tucker's never advocated for red flag laws or bumpfire stock bans to my knowledge. He never pimped the vaccine the way Trump did and still does. It's Tucker's emails and statements (and other emails) that Sydney Powell was full of crap that sunk Fox in this lawsuit. Note that SS has no comeback for Trump's complicity, only an "LOL." But that particular conspiracy theory, against started by SS, only makes sense if Trump was in on it. Trump and Sydney Powell and Rudy Giuliani. That put forward a stupid theory of how the election was stolen (if it was stolen) when they could have made an actual argument that makes sense. (Prominent democrats also say Dominion Voting Machines flipped an election in Georgia in 2016 so it makes sense that Dominion Voting Machines flipped an election in Georgia in 2020.)

Meh. I'm tired of the evil or stupid? debate. Either disqualifies Trump from ever getting my vote.

Yeah....^this too.

Ok. Youre still a troll. I made a mistake. Therefore all conspiracy theories are wrong and no one died and there is no pandemic and there is no new world order and everything is awesome.

 

[Snowball]

Between this, and the upcoming Smartmatic settlement, and the tyrannical new law called the Electoral Count Act,

there is basically Zero Chance of a valid election in this country.

Now there will be Zero news coverage and Zero political accountability. It's over. Try another country.

You're a [mod edit] who believes anything you're told so long as there's ads for overpriced water filters and canned beans next to the article.

Just have to find a country that isn't A) openly hostile to western legal principles and the concept of natural rights, B) a pawn of our government, or C) on our government's "to do" list.
