From the settlement. there was no apology in this statement. from our from what i am gathering from you and im going to open this up for my colleagues to ask questions, but just one final point on that how much of a sticking point to reach the settlement was an apology or retraction. how much of a role did that play in the settlement negotiations? because i know that was something dominion was asking for early on. well i dont really want to get into that. i think at the end of the day this goes ...

Have a goal of settlement. we had a goal of winning a trial. it was only when there is an offer here. that really was showed was effectively a victory that my client decided to take it. i do think that the summary judgment order of the court was really helpful. we obviously thought the facts were on our side. um, and to be clear. we embrace the first amendment. the actual malice standard is absolutely critical for journalists. and i think, actually what? this settlement today shows is that the a...

KUALA LUMPUR: SIAB Holdings Bhd’s wholly owned subsidiary, Siab (M) Sdn Bhd has accepted the proposed settlement arrangement from YTB Development Sdn Bhd (YTBD).

Dominion. theyre facing several other lawsuits from smartmatic, another voting machines company . that lawsuit is even bigger than the dominion one. thats $2.7 billion. theyre also facing a lawsuit from one of their former producers, abby grossman, who said that the fox news lawyers had manipulated her testimony leading up to the trial. so fox is going to be facing a whole bunch of legal challenges and how its acted today in making this settlement can and probably will impact those other lawsuit...

Truth matters and lies have consequences. leaving court, the legal team for fox news a tight—lipped but did however issue a written statement stating the settlement reflected its continued commitment to the highest journalistic standards. despite putting this case behind them, fox news legal woes are not yet over, it must defend itself in a $2.7 billion defamation case brought by another election technology company, smart matt. 0ne technology company, smart matt. one thing is certain, todays o...

This money sooner though this is what blew my min today. fox basically paid $800 millio today to avoid going on th stand. could they have agreed to this number months ago, befor rupert and others were deposed but for the damaging texts and emails were ever made public >> so, the short answer is yes i mean, that is what everybody has always been speculating. what in the hack took it s long to actually get it across the finish line for settlement but as often happens in trials when youre preparing...

Beef products inc. whatever the company was, but that was $177 million. so if you think about it, this is such an extraordinary huge, huge, huge settlement, and i think its going to have enormous implications for how we see fox managed lawsuits moving forward now the question, alison weve been talking about this all night. does it actually changed ? fox? does it change the way that they handle their coverage? its hard to say i mean facts is not required to apologize to its views viewers. nor is ...

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...
