Speaking after Dominion Voting Systems reached a US$787.5m settlement in its defamation lawsuit against Fox, the company’s attorney Justin Nelson says the outcome “represents vindication and accountability”. Dominion CEO John Poulos says Fox ‘has admitted to telling lies’ about the voting equipment company that caused ‘enormous damage’. The settlement ends a dispute over whether Fox and its parent company knowingly broadcast false and outlandish allegations that Dominion was involved in a plot to steal the 2020 election. Neither party disclosed the terms of the settlement other than the dollar amount, and attorneys for Dominion declined to answer questions about whether it requires Fox to issue a retraction or a formal apology
