Fox News Settles Defamation Suit for $787.5 Million
-
It's enormously satisfying to see conservative media reaping what they sow. Those who tell lies ought to face consequences, and now they have.
Fox Corporation said in a statement that "we acknowledge the court’s rulings finding certain claims about Dominion [that were made on Fox News] to be false. 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."
Hopefully the "moving forward" part of Fox's statement means that Fox will learn from its mistakes. But I wouldn't count on it.

Do you mean like the lies liberal media told about the Covington Kids, Kyle Rittenhouse, and countless others?!
Of course not, because you love those lies.

Imagine thinking Fox News is "conservative media" !!!
Some people sooooo far behind.
-
Also - Imagine being dumb enough to think that electronic voting machines are secure.

https://twitter.com/KanekoaTheGreat/status/1648462770936115202I don't know what stupid Fox may be covering up (by settling - avoids discovery process).
I do know Fox is dependent on Biden Regime, for their broadcasting licenses & other government approvals.
And I hear that Rupert Murdoch, and his sons and their lib wives, have for years been anti-Trump.
How anti-Trump? or/and how much are those licenses & approvals worth? We can put a number on it. $787 million.
None of which alters the key facts:
- rampant USA election rigging & fraud
- illegitimate Biden Regime
- USA Soviet-tized & a land of human rights abuses

They settled on the eve of the trial. Discovery is and was completed prior to trial. They went thru discovery. Maybe you missed all of the bombshells that came out of the discovery because they didn't penetrate into your conservative news bubble, but the rest of the world now knows a whole lot about how cynically FOX lied to its viewers. That's including your beloved Tucker Carlson, who knowingly lied to his audience and also privately dissed Trump.

@Spintendo CNN used to be the undisputed king of news media.. by far. Now they are just a dangling hemorrhoid off the ass of news media after dozens of major blunders that they got wrong.
At one point, they were having random amateurs send in their own news videos, and it turned out that people were staging events just to upload to CNN - including MURDERS!
I don't feel bad for FoxNews, because they have not been consistent with their reporting. The left criticize Fox for being too far right. I criticize Fox for being too far LEFT! Getting rid of OingoBoingo yesterday was a bad move.

A couple of years ago, I posted about CNN being outed for staging a fake protest in London.
It was the local shop owners that outed them.
CNN even had a wardrobe van for their "protesters" so it looked like they were from all walks of life and all professions.

@hubrys I was suggesting - but OK I botched the phrasing - that real discovery, aggressive discovery, probably was never done.
There's discovery - and then there's "discovery" avoiding the Mutual Assured Destruction of truly uncovering stuff.
Unless you're a 1L, you know that. But OK I was hurry & didn't phrase it.
We know Murdochs would have had to testify & suffer all kinds of exposure, in any real trial:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/apr/19/dominion-lawsuit-rupert-murdoch-testify
Also Paul Ryan (owned by China). We can now put a number on how much they wanted to avoid trial or real exposure. $787 M.
As usual, you ignored all my main points.
Fox is Regime Media. In USA 2020 election, Fox were the first ones to call corrupt Arizona for Biden.
THE FIRST.
And Sean Hannity literally wears a CIA pin, on-air. It doesn't get creepier.
Tucker Carlson is the most-nearly-honest part of Fox but even he is on a leash.
To me, Fox is interesting not as "conservative media" - which again they are not even a little - but as Controlled Opposition they indicate Overton Window, that is, how much the Regime will allow normie-Americans to say.
The point of the show-process between Dominion & Fox is to stop normie-Americans from saying truth..... that 2020 election was 100% fraudulent making Biden Regime illegitimate.
Regime Media OF COURSE moves to hide Regime Election Rigging. After a suitable show.
Fox never wanted the election-rigging truth to come out, any more than Dominion, DNC, DOJ, CIA or any other Regime organ did.
How do we know? Because
- Fox was, in reality and again, FIRST to call key states for Biden Regime in 2020. (Contra lib myth.) And
- Fox just paid &787m to keep all dirty laundry hidden
USA is new Soviet Union. As I said:
-
Imagine being dumb enough to think Fox "conservative media"
-
Imagine being dumb enough to think electronic voting secure
Let's add: Imagine being dumb enough to defend a "dramatic" (but prob pre-arranged) settlement.
-
Update: Right on cue - as I typed all this - Tucker & Fox are done.
EXACTLY. Even on a leash, Tucker honesty was too much for Fox / tested free speech too much.
With Tucker gone, Fox will now suffer same fate as CNN & MSNBC already suffered..... ........crash & burn as viewers flee what remains, the naked Regime Propaganda.
(propaganda of CIA, FBI, war-mongers / MIC, China / CCP, Big Pharma & their related election riggers)
