Fox and Dominion settle for $787 million

Hopefully as part of the settlement each anchor person has to publicly state they lied. I doubt it, though.

Damn. I really wanted them to go to trial.

Well, as part of the settlement, Fox went on record throwing Trump under the bus as the ultimate liar... at least that is on record.

I read somewhere that an on air apology isn't part of the deal. I wish it was! I'm disappointed they decided to settle. I would have loved everything out there!

I feel like this won’t affect their viewership at all, whereas with a trial and admissions left and right that they lied some of it might start to sink in.

I realize that was hoping for a lot, but I was still hoping.

I saw a paragraph/small article somewhere this afternoon that said there was another company whose voting machines were also lumped in with these lies. Much smaller than Dominion it seems like, but the company put out a statement saying they are going ahead with their suit and will not be settling out of court, in order for Fox's transgressions to be fully revealed.

From a business standpoint I can see why they'd settle. But for my personal goals, I really wanted this to be incredibly public.

I would love this but I wouldn't bank on it. This might be a negotiation tactic and it will be hard for them to turn down that money. But here's hoping!
