If they make more money from advertisers and increased viewership by lying than they pay out in law suits, expect the cycle to continue for the foreseeable future.

The viewers want lies. Fox will give them lies.
 


And once this is over their massively lying talkers will go right back to massively lying. Not unlike our President.
After reading your post, I had to look up the video.

Go to 4:45


Smartmatic should go forward with a lawsuit against Fox News and others that have deliberately been promoting known falsehoods.
 
Newsmax has also debunked itself under legal pressure: https://www.newsmax.com/t/newsmax/article/1002355/18
“Newsmax would like to clarify its news coverage and note it has not reported as true certain claims made about these companies.
...
No evidence has been offered that Dominion or Smartmatic used software or reprogrammed software that manipulated votes in the 2020 election....”
 
I didn't see this thread.

This is great. Am I wrong to assume they can also sue Sidney Powell, Trump, Giuliani and all the liars?

There is already a defamation lawsuit against Trump by some women who claim he sexually assaulted them.

It's not often that you see the lying liars at Fox have to tuck tail to someone other than a Republican politician.

I give Trump (and his supporters/media) for pushing massive lies. A bunch of dumb asses are eating it up.
 
Lol, when told to shut up or pay out the weasels are coming clean.

That’s the issue, for way too long these garbage news sources have been able to get away scott free saying whatever they want.

I have said in other threads about this that I am surprised that FOX attorneys didn't try the Tucker Carlson defense.

"Fox persuasively argues, that given Mr. Carlson's reputation, any reasonable viewer 'arrives with an appropriate amount of skepticism' about the statement he makes."
 
I am sure the usual suspects will be by to tell us how this is just more proof of a coverup.
 
Trump just can't figure out how all his cheating did not help him win... He underestimated American People, the same as he spent 4 yrs attacking Democrats, because he deluded himself that the few thousands among the many many thousands in cities showed up at his belligerent fest... He blinded himself to the fact, those attendee's did not make up the entirety of the cities he spewed his vitriol.

Even cities with 200-300+ Thousand people... Trump ignored the fact that if he got 10-15-20 or 30 thousands to show up,... it was only 10-20-30% of the population.

It's as dumb as his spin about the Inauguration Crowd ... he blinded himself by his own egomania....and meglomaniac madness.

Americans in Majority Mass Numbers DETEST Trump and the Republican Mad men who devoted themselves to him and ignored the Constitution and attacked the Majority of American People... Reality is: down to even kindergartens and grade school kids... know exactly how vile Trump and Republican Politicians have been and still is.

What Republican did to deny help to the people with this Stimulus assistance won't be forgotten for many many years.

the Conservative South has turned away from Jesus/The Ten Commandments as the truth and now look to Fox News/Rush Limbaugh/Donald Trump for truth.


let that sink in.







oh, here's a summary. see if you can pick out the commandments that the Conservative South (as a whole) STILL abides by...

The Ten Commandments - as Found in God's Word

that makes complete sense to me. he has always created his own reality (fake it to you make it) and never grew out of it. hell, it got worse and worse and his brain now doesn't see reality (like COVID, elections, etc).

Looks like the legal system regarding slander is working. Hurrah!
 
I note fewer and fewer right wingers participating in these debates. Why is that?

Sad thing is their lies spread like wild fire, and when they have to admit they lies it dies down very quickly, and the average person still only hears about the lies.

The massive liars will still continued to tell massive lies. It's what Republican media is best at.

All the Trump supporters that I know have repeated these lies since the election. And I guarantee you they will be repeating these lives until the day they die.

Some were likely "deep planted foreign operatives".. & paid operatives to push Authoritarian Plutocracy.

As a young man posted on social media... that these people knew what they were supporting was wrong, but as the Confederacy Idealist had promoted for 156 yrs within their gerrymandered confines... They thought they had someone in Trump vile and madly maniac enough to try and overthrow American Democracy and shit on the American Constitution as if he could create the White Nationalism of the Past.

The 70 million people who voted for Trumpism, have exposed themselves as people who "never" learned the Confederacy Control over their minds, and how it infected their hearts... and kept them with racial ignorance, as well as ignorance of how much damage they supported that would become unto them as well. They saw their skin and it made them choose "self defeating stupidity, for the sake of ingrained vanity, lust and greed.


Some may have even come to learn that the Confederacy Right Wing Conservatives, did not represent the moderate Conservatives and they did not and do not care about the lives or the welfare of the people of this nation. They also realized that Trump and the Confederate Game of Republicans saw them as "disposable" and suitable to be scarified as collateral damage losses by promoting policy to allow their kids to be infected and to take it home and infect their family, and for the poor and working poor to infect each others, "as a culling program" where only the strong survive.
Now, some have learned how little Republicanism cares about them.. they way they held up Stimulus, especially after the wealthy were taken care of in the CARES Act... and then they would not give the remaining Billions to the struggling small business across this nation.
Now, they want to send people... $600 as if they are suppose to use that to eat "bean soup juice" for the next 3 months, and can only buy toilet paper and pay their copay for prescriptions... because that is "all" that $600 is going to do. Some peoples Prescription Co-pays will eat that up in the first month, and for some it may not even last to cover them with medications they need for a month.

Everyone making Under the same $75 Thousands dollars should have at least gotten $200 minimum in Food Assistance to go with the $600 to every person who is listed to get the $600... even if they are already getting Food Stamp assistance. "we need to keep people healthy"... and We have a Food Crisis in This Country. For a family of 4, that would mean, $3200 comes to their household. But even at that, this should never had been a one time program output. its should have been put in place to cover the first 6-8 months of 2021,,, because they already know the vaccine can't be distributed in wide volume until maybe August or Later of 2021.

Every States Should have had money directed to "Food Banks"... This means depending on the size of the community, is how that could have been managed, from $500K - $XX Million, based on the volume of people they serve ... on a monthly basis.

In 4 yrs, Trump has caused the National Debt to Increase nearly $7,000,000,000,000 ... and American got nothing for it... so... with that $900, it could have been set to be distributed "MONTHLY" or Every 6 Weeks" for the next 6 months.

That would be maybe $5 Trillion... What is 5 Trillion for America.. when we spent more than that in the Middle East behind a Destabilization WE Created and Promoted.

If American can carry $152,000,000,000,000 of Un-Funded Obligation... It's not likely that $5 Trillion more debt is going to sink us... BESIDES, that money GOES DIRECTLY BACK INTO THE AMERICAN ECONOMY, AND AS IT CYCLE BACK INTO THE ECONOMY... ITS IMPACT BECOME LESS OF A DEBT BURDEN, BECAUSE IT GENERATES AND STIMULATE COMMERCE. It become a Positive Factor, that gives assurance to the function and help sustain more businesses.
When this Pandemic is contained... we need to go back to Post World War II Tax Levels on Corporations.... and we will work our way to pay for all this and reduce the national debt in the process.

We must stand and think and think critically... for what works for American People and American Society... and in 5 yrs.. we all will be in a far better condition and position going forward into the 21st Century.. It also will allow us to Federally Support and Assist in the Creation of Million of New Business... which does not hurt anything for the help to go to American Cities... rather than going to Mega Corporations, Mega Oil and Military Industrial Productions... who have been bleeding us dry since the days Eisenhower left office.

Wake Up People.... Think outside of the mental box... and become critical long term thinkers...

This is the best Christmas present. Even Newsmax has had to issue a retraction. We're talking about Newsmax, a place so devoid of truth it's become Trump's favorite news source.

"Newsmax would like to clarify its news coverage and note it has not reported as true certain claims made about these companies," the outlet said in a statement posted online and read by host John Tabacco. "There are several facts our viewers and readers should be aware. Newsmax has found no evidence either Dominion or Smartmatic owns the other, or has any business association with each other."

If they sue Trump and Giuliani for defamation, this is going to be epic. Trump and his cult don't have a leg to stand on.

I guess it turns out you can just make stuff up and defame people in this country without consequence.
