BREAKING: Fox News just reached a last-second settlement with Dominion Voting Systems. The court case is now closed.

Fox News and Dominion Voting Systems said Tuesday that they have reached a settlement agreement just moments before opening arguments were set to begin.

The deal ends a monthslong legal battle over whether the media company had defamed the voting machine maker when they broadcast election conspiracy theories in 2020.

The terms of the settlement were not immediately available.

Dominion sued Fox News in 2021, demanding $1.6 billion in damages. They said the network defamed it when it broadcast baseless claims that it was tied to the late Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez, that it paid kickbacks to politicians and that its machines “rigged” the 2020 presidential election by flipping millions of votes for Trump to Biden.

The settlement came on the day trial was scheduled to begin; late Sunday, the court delayed the conclusion of jury selection and opening arguments to Tuesday morning, leading to speculation that settlement talks could be taking place behind closed doors.

The announcement follows a bruising week for Fox News. During pretrial conference hearings, Delaware Superior Court Judge Eric Davis sanctioned them for withholding evidence, admonished them for not being straightforward with him, and said he was considering appointing a special master to investigate possible legal misconduct by the attorneys. He said he would allow Dominion to conduct an additional deposition with Rupert Murdoch at Fox’s expense.

Exactly 119 weeks from 1/6/2021

So?

And just like that Dominion got paid for their job with public record and no one can question it.

'stunning'





Theater

So in the end it merely becomes a money laundering situation from one
division of the cabal to the other.

Before discovery.

Coverup.

It’s a script.

Fox would never have settled if Dominion didn’t have anything while Fox had evidence to back up their election rigging claims.

Wow…Fox settled for $787.5 million

Nothing will convince the trumptards lmao

Dominion Voting Systems Lawyer Justin Nelson just announced that the amount settled on was a whopping $787,500,000.

"Lies have consequences," he said.

Dominion attorneys and executives would not disclose additional details on their settlement in terms of public apologies or admission of fault.

$787,500,000 speaks volumes.

Bingo.

There are no 'sides' on that stage, sir.

This guy calls Kim Dotcom a "nazi" and Roger Stone an "anti semite"...

That may be true, but 99% of the time this type of case comes down to a cost benefit and risk analysis.

Fox estimates the number of hours, legal fees, etc. etc. etc. based on best, good, bad scenarios. Their biggest problem was going to be the jury based on the venue.

Domino estimates the same. For them the biggest issue was going to be proving damage. They can't PROVE they lost any business, or that their name was damaged such that it hurt them in any way. In fact, it could be argued that it raised their profile in certain circles, improving their image. So it was a crap shoot for them.

Both sides sized up the jury, the judge, etc. ran the best, good, bad scenarios, then played "Let's make a deal".

For once, the lawyers are the ones who got screwed, because they were licking their chops over millions in billable hours.

Almost forgot…Drunk Rudy as well.

$ 2 billion cash

Dominion wins again

Switching votes is profitable

the wayback machine can talk? didn't know that

No it’s not before discovery. Both sides completed discovery months ago. The lawsuit was going to trial today and they had already completed jury selection.

Fox corp was the best medium to transfer large sums of money to an entity on the supposed 'opposite' side.

Well he’s correct, so…

Anybody know if trial dates have been set for those lawsuits?

Dominion’s case with Fox is closed.

But….stay tuned.
