BREAKING: Fox News and Dominion Reach Settlement in Defamation Lawsuit – Settlement Totals More Than $787 Million!
Fox News on Tuesday reached a settlement with Dominion Voting Systems on the first day of the trial.
“The parties have resolved their case,” Delaware Superior Court judge Eric Davis told the court Tuesday afternoon.
Dominion sued Fox News for $1.6 billion over ‘false election rigging claims.’
The settlement totals more than $787 million, according to Dominion lawyer Justin Nelson.
“The truth matters, lies have consequences,” Nelson said.
“Over two years ago, a torrent of lies swept Dominion and election officials across America into an alternative universe of conspiracy theories, causing grievous harm,” he added.
