Fox News’ legal battle with Dominion Voting Systems is over. It now has to deal with Smartmatic, which is seeking billions of dollars more than its rival wanted in damages.

The voting technology company filed a lawsuit against Fox in New York state courts for defamation following the 2020 election, and is seeking $2.7 billion in damages from Fox and other defendants. Dominion wanted “only” $1.6 billion and settled with Fox for $787 million Tuesday. Both lawsuits focus on Fox News’ coverage of the 2020 election, including lies about voter fraud.

“The disinformation campaign that was launched against us is an obliterating one. For us, this is existential, and we have to take action.” ‘Smartmatic will expose the rest’ After more than two years of legal wrangling, Fox reached a last-second settlement with Dominion, agreeing to the biggest publicly known defamation payout by a US media company in history.

Tried to watch CNN this morning and the set design is awful. It looks like painted yellow & brown canvas strips framing tiny video panels with an ugly staircase in the background. No wonder you guys have abysmal ratings. Miss the old 2015 people and professional news you had.

Here is your fate CNN 😂

Dominion’s voting machines were compromised.

'They cover up Hunter Biden’s many real crimes. They indict Pres Trump over fake crimes. The left is so hell-bent on winning that they’re eroding the rule of law and trying to turn us into a banana republic,' former Missouri attorney general candidate Will Scharf tweeted.

The real damage is to our election integrity using this hackable BS.

Whistleblower claims?

And they will still own you, even if they lose!!

Dominion helped steal the election. They didn't sue HBO who had a documentary showing a guy hack into voting machines and flip votes

Like when CNN lied about Nicholas Sandmann, a kid, being a Nazi for smiling?

PLEASE take them to trial!!! Make those fuckers take the stand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Money, money, money Funny how money recifies all ills.

It’s a billion more.
