It was going to be the trial of the year (until TFG's case gets going in court). Dominion Voting Systems sued FOX "News" because of the relentless lies told by the network about hacked and inaccurate voting equipment. This was all in service to TFG's claim that the election was stolen. The lies were spewed by everyone on air, from the little-known hosts all the way up to the marquee "stars", as well as numerous guests. It was a cesspool of deliberate misinformation (AKA: lies), spewed by a purported news organization, because party is thicker than honesty and integrity (not that there was any of that previously at FOX "News").

Much to the chagrin of those of us who would have LOVED to see Hannity, Tuckums, and Ingraham have to testify, a settlement was reached where FOX had to pay Dominion $787 MILLION. That is a hefty sum. This isn't one of those "jury-award" cases where the dollar amount could be reduced on appeal. They agreed to pay that amount to stop the process. This means that:

1. FOX knew it would lose the case
2. They might have been afraid of having to pay more had it been a jury trial
3. They didn't want their stars to have to testify under oath

Naturally, this has been all over the airwaves... except (of course) on FOX "News" itself:

So FOX is trying to use the "nothing to see here - move along, please" tactic to avoid acknowledging to their viewers that they lied to them consistently and knowingly. And yet - they still have the gall to use the word "News" in their name as if they still have any veracity left.

M-three-toes-TG had a hot take on all this that was - as always - poorly thought out and met with ridicule:

The responses were swift and brutal, such as this one by Bob Cesca: "Hey, ding dong, food critics aren't allowed to falsely claim the kitchen was filled with rats, auto critics can't falsely say a car exploded, conservatives can't falsely claim they found severed penises in their Bud Light cans. But whatever, keep embarrassing yourself, ding dong".

Yeah, that pretty much sums it ALL up.
