22nd April 2023 | Hong Kong

Australia media tycoon Rupert Murdoch Fox Corporation & Fox News is paying $787.5 million settlement for a defamation lawsuit (2021) by United States voting-machine maker Dominion (Dominion Voting Systems).  The United States Presidential election had took place in November 2020 between Republicans Donald Trump & Democrats Joe Biden.  The $787.5 million settlement avoided a potential trial between Fox Corporation & Fox News and Dominion, with Fox claiming vote-rigging by Dominion on the election.  19th April 2023 – FOX News Media announced today that a settlement was reached in the Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit. Fox News:  “We are pleased to have reached a settlement of our dispute with Dominion Voting Systems. We acknowledge the Court’s rulings finding certain claims about Dominion to be false. This settlement reflects FOX’s continued commitment to the highest journalistic standards. We are hopeful that our decision to resolve this dispute with Dominion amicably, instead of the acrimony of a divisive trial, allows the country to move forward from these issues.”
