Live Updates: Fox News Settles Defamation Suit, Averting Trial

[SunSeeker]

85. Lawrence O'Donnell made me feel a lot better tonight.

He pointed out that Dominion's brilliant lawyers had already gotten Rupert Murdoch on the record at his depo admitting that Trump's claims against Dominion were false. And those attorneys aren't done; they will now litigate their defamation claims against Giuliani and the My Pillow Guy idiot.

And, he pointed out that today, Fox for the first time talked about the case on air. They had their so-called "media reporter," Howard Kurtz, speed talk his way through a brief statement that the case had settled (he didn't say for how much). In so doing, he did mention what the case was about, namely "whether Fox was reckless in reporting former President Trump's claim that Dominion machines were flipping votes to Biden," of which he quickly said, "that's obviously false, those were conspiracy theories."

Granted it was at mid-afternoon at one of the lower viewership hours (Cavuto's Your World show), but getting any Fox personality to say "that's obviously false, those were conspiracy theories" is a victory for truth, and for America.
