Dominion v. Fox News trial ends with last-minute settlement


https://news.yahoo.com/live-updates-...090017576.html

The highly anticipated trial in the defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems against Fox News began and ended Tuesday with a last-minute settlement between the two parties.

After a lengthy recess, Delaware Superior Court Judge Eric Davis dismissed the jury and announced that the issue was "resolved." Dominion has accused the conservative cable news giant of knowingly, and repeatedly, broadcasting guests’ and hosts’ baseless allegations after the 2020 presidential election that Dominion’s voting machines were rigged to help Joe Biden steal the election from then-President Donald Trump.

Fox News argued that it was simply reporting on the newsworthy voter fraud allegations that Trump and his allies were promoting in the wake of the election, and that the broadcasts in question should be protected under the First Amendment.

There is no video feed of the proceedings but Yahoo News will be following the audio and giving you the latest updates below.

I was looking forward to seeing what came out in the trial. This story will disappear by tomorrow.

I was wishing the same. FOX should have been made to admit their lies!

They were. That said I think they should have been made to admit them on the shows where they were made.

I missed it becuase no one from FOX has said a word about it.

The admission was part of the settlement, but they didn't have to say it on air which was the point I was trying to make (that they should have).
