Put the only conservative news source out of business by lawsuits. Man we’re in trouble.

so lets see who they are trying to bully, Sydney Powell, Mike Lindell, Lin Wood, Rudy Giuliani and now Fox news. All for Billions of dollars. Lets see who has the balls to countersue

at some point i would think, these idiots would have to produce a voting machine, which Im sure they have reprogrammed by now, to prove their case. If not, any defendant can demand to have one or more of the Dominion machines inspected by a computer programmer or to check the proprietary program for irregularities

I doubt they will have to produce a voting machine. The cases against them have all been rejected so that should be proof enough.

 

[Dr. Evil]

When did Fox news become a conservative news source?

 

[Grimscale]

The cases against them have all been rejected so that should be proof enough.

But were they rejected on merit, or on technicalities unrelated to the actual contents of the case?

Find out who is actually paying the law firm and who the Dominion stock holders are.

The company alleged that the network "recklessly disregarded the truth" and participated in a disinformation campaign against it because "the lies were good for Fox's business."

Uh, when is the rest of MSM getting their lawsuit paperwork?

 

[Steal2B]

So it's time for Daniel Defense, LaRue, Sig, Colt, Rick River, Smith & Wesson, FN, Ruger, et al to sue the MSMs, CNNs, MSNBCs, et al who all "recklessly disregarded the truth" and participated in a disinformation campaign against sporting rifles because "the lies" increased their click bait addicted profits.

Good.

Fox perpetuated the same lies as other sources--lies even Sidney Powell, for example, are now claiming were so absurd that a reasonable person wouldn't have fallen for them anyway (many who were told these lies and believed them still defend her and her ilk, unbelievably).

As for the legal defense of Fox, the onus is on Fox to prove that what it said either did not damage Dominion or that it was true; the onus is on Fox news, not on dominion.

You cannot go to the news and claim your neighbor is a molester and then when he brings you to court for defamation your defense is "prove you're not a molester".

Dominion is making a mockery of these clowns and is going to get some well deserved settlements out of them. Next time there is an election they are going to be careful to stick to facts, not incessant bullshit posted online.

As far as I know, the pillow guy -Mike Lindell - is the only one with the balls to fight back.

Wow! You really have lapped up the agenda...

Fox as a media entity has larger leeway than most when defending against defamation suits, but their compatriots eventually keyed into what was happening. Remember americanthinker's apology?

American Thinker issues Mea Culpa on their election reporting and a lot of you are not going to like it.

I have some tangential experience with this kind of thing that I hope helps you understand what is and is not going on here. I do not know anything beyond what is publicly available.

There are enormous protections afforded the press, and libel is typically a very high bar to clear. Their lawyers clearly thought Dominion cleared that bar.

Yes, it is a slurping sound I hear.

I wonder what happened to that machine in Antrim County? Sent back to Dominion for “maintenance”?
