ClashAndBurn Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 That’s less than half of the 1.6 BILLION that Fox was initially being sued for.
FameFatale Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Ugh. I can't believe they folded. I wish they would have exposed the lies.
LustSpell Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Of course they folded. They should've DESTROYED these pigs for destroying faith in the election system. Money always talks at the end of the day as usual.
Bears01 Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Dominion totally caved and let the public down. For half of what they wanted
HEAVYONIT Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Dominion should have DESTROYED them for their slanderous and downright false claims that they knowingly spewed to their 0-brain-cell base. This is disappointing as ****, considering they're just going to do it again in the next election.
Vermillion Posted April 18, 2023 Author Posted April 18, 2023 I need to see any kind of stipulation here cause I am PISSED and actually genuinely surprised there wasn't a follow-through. Especially on-air announcements from their primetime block. Also wondering if the subsequent case from SmartMatic had any influence on this.
family.guy123 Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Confused by the reaction in here. What would a trial have revealed? They admitted to lying.

It would have made Rupert Murdoch himself go up on the stand in a court of law, and to admit in open court to the entire world that his company is nothing more than a propaganda network that does nothing but lie to the masses, along with Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity
Stimulus Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 Very disappointed. Securing a judgment against Fox News would have set an important precedent for this kind of defamation case.

Helios Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 I mean Fox still LOST. Its clear now they HAVE to admit that the election wasnt stolen or risk being sued again.

Just googled who Rupert Murdoch is (thought he was that mass killer from the south lol). But yeah, that was never going to happen.

It was very close to actually happening, till they settled today 1 minute ago, Espresso said: So, welp. Down to SmartMatic then. They’ll settle. They should go for the jugular and set a huge precedent, but I don’t have hope in that happening
DirtyPony87 Posted April 18, 2023 Posted April 18, 2023 And we miss out on the content and underlying truths. Bummer.

For half of what they wanted the company's valuation was $80 million so it was never gonna get the 1.6B anyway

What you were hoping to see was likely never ever going to happen. They were never going to not settle if the alternative was what you wanted.
VOSS Posted April 19, 2023 Posted April 19, 2023 Dominion is owned by some PE firm I think so this was the likely outcome, was still hoping they’d take it to trial though. We’ll see what happens with Smartmatic

I know of someone that got sued (lost in court and was order to pay) and never paid and nothing happen to them and after 7 years it doesn’t even show up on their credit report anymore. FOX News won’t also pay a penny
harwee Posted April 19, 2023 Posted April 19, 2023 This really should have gone to trial. I think there's a lot more to this story than mere fake news peddling.
