Settled
Fox News has settled in the 12th hour and won't be going to trial over its lies about Dominion Voting Systems. And, the news organization has not apologized. Dominion's lawyers have tried to position the $787 million settlement as a public acknowledgement that lies have consequences. Will that stop Fox in the future? Probably not. It needed to be dragged through the mud for all to see how dirty it was. Also, the First Amendment issues were not resolved, which leaves open how far a news organization can go in bending the truth to fit its opinion. I wrote yesterday that I could hardly wait to see the evidence. It looks now that I'll never get to see and fully understand what the network did.
