Dominion Dominion Voting Systems CEO John Poulos speaks outside the Leonard Williams Justice Center in Wilmington, Delaware, on April 18, 2023month ago, Dominion Voting Systems seemed like a dragon slayer. The conservative news behemoth Fox News had just agreed to pay Dominion $787.5 million to settle a defamation suit that was hours away from going to trial. It was the largest such settlement ever announced by a media company.
Since Poulos incorporated Dominion two decades ago, the company has grown into one of the largest providers of electronic voting hardware and software in America. But it wasn’t until the 2020 election that Dominion became a household name, after former President Donald Trump and his allies voiced conspiracy theories about it, including baseless allegations that the company helped rig the election by flipping votes for Trump to Joe Biden.
Dominion still has six other defamation cases pending, including suits against right-wing media companies Newsmax and One America News. The closely-watched litigation against Fox News led to the disclosure of texts and emails indicating that some at Fox had doubts about the election fraud claims the network was peddling, as well as embarrassing remarks by Tucker Carlson and other prominent personalities mocking Trump and his claims that he had beat Biden.
