Were pleased to reach a settlement with dominion voting systems. we acknowledge the courts rulings finding certains claims of dominions to be false >> the highest journalistic standards. the case is now over fox news and dominion settled out of court today for an eye popping 78 -- not even 78 -- $787.5 million which, yes, is less than the $1.6 billion dominion had sought at trial, but it is still a g gargantuan sum of money. dominions ceo said as part of the settlement fox admitted it told lies....

The settlement which clearly had to be acknowledged publicly as part of the settlement and say we were vindicated, we are right, something wrong happened, fox had to pay in the high nine figures. it doesnt do that for charity its doing that for necessity to stave out possibly an even bigger defamation thing. what does that mean internally for fox? were going to have to watch and see. fox news did as you presented to your viewers quite rightly acknowledge the statement as austere as it was to its...

Its great to have you at this desk >> thanks for having me. >> i guess id love to know as someone whos been in the trenches and understands sort of what is erupting in the center of this country, the schism that seems to be breaking apart these united states. when it comes to fox this is not something you hear about on fox news we played the fox media report howard curts mentioned it and was gone in terms of the folks you have talked to in and around sort of conservative gathers, is it really as...

Were not only untrue but to be lies in the moment those are tough, tough things to have to address fully. but, you know, dominion wasnt interested in settling this case until it had on the record a rather fulsome and complete set of facts, not all that we would have received had the trial gone forward but nonetheless laying out for the public and nation the degree to which there was cynicism and fear of losing audience that was driving -- that were driving foxs decisions not some sort of journal...

And then fox continues, this settlement reflect foxs continued commitment to the highest journestic standards as far as we know nothing in the settlement appears to make fox news make any on-air acknowledgement about what they said for dominion beyond their media reporter reading that statement this afternoon so what does this mean for fox news and our country that continues to grapple with the fallout of misinformation about the campaign of the 2020 election joining us now is the media correspo...

The expectation this trial would last around six weeks and would examine the full extent of foxs promotion of the big lie so the whole world was watching to see what the implications would be for the future of fox news and really the future of news on whole. but before opening arguments could even begin, the whole thing was over >> all right, sorry to do that to you, mark were just learning now fox and dominion have settled. spell it out >> well, it was a dramatic ending to what everyone thought...

State and main stream media and other elements from fox because thats clearly the business model thats worked so well for fox in recent years. in fact, the head long pursuit of that is what got fox in trouble in the first place this remedy will not prevent them from doing that itll prevent them from being so fsk spch maybe i could be wrong but youll see a whole sale changing of the guard in six to 18 months and maybe youll see a difference in tone >> its hard to see fox giving up the cultural gr...

They can afford the greatest litigators in the country and have hired them again and again in this case winston strong and dan web, one of the most fearsome in the united states. but they were more than happy to pay to stop the bleeding, to stop the revelations and stop the attentions of news organizations of yours and mine and many others from focusing on fox and how they behaved and their knowing presentation of false facts to their millions of viewers. >> david, nprs media correspondent who w...

Basically giving it to them on a silver platter. its not what youd necessarily expect in such a deposition. you know, it was all there. what do you think is happening here? >> well, first of all, i would expect foxs lawyers to say thats rupert murdoch, there is some distance here between rupert murdoch and the running of the fox network, the fox news channel. the argument on the fox side is theyre trying to pull rupert murdoch into this. the issue is what these emails show is that rupert murdoch...

Lot of information out there that is being hidden. i want you to search that information. if youre a teen, look at the stories like chloe cole. shes 18 or 19 now. i think she had a double mastectomy at 14 or 15 years old. shes out here speaking about it because shes an adult now. so shes getting all of this done as a teenager. where does that put the medical industry? she was not a consenting adult. she got life-altering surgery. she got basically castrated as a teenager with all of these drugs ...
