Dominion Voting Systems filed a defamation lawsuit on Friday seeking $1.6 billion in damages against Fox News. They claim that the network knowingly spread misinformation about the company’s role in nonexistent voter fraud.
How would anyone know since they wouldn’t let anyone look at the machines?
This is the first time Dominion has sued a media company in its efforts to collect billions in damages from pro-Trump figures.
Dominion has previously sued Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, pro-Trump lawyer Sidney Powell, and the pro-Trump MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell. All have appeared as guests on Fox News.

The Importance of Prayer: How a Christian Gold Company Stands Out by Defending Americans’ Retirement
Smartmatic, another voting company baselessly accused of taking part in an international communist plot to rig the election for Joe Biden, filed a $2.7 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox, some of the network’s top hosts, Giuliani, and Powell in February.
Fox moved to dismiss the lawsuit by Smartmatic in February, claiming the suit seeks to “stifle debate and chill vital First Amendment activities.”
Dominion argues that Fox News “set out to lure viewers back — including President Trump himself — by intentionally and falsely blaming Dominion for President Trump’s loss by rigging the election.”
“The truth matters. Lies have consequences,” Dominion’s complaint says. There was no widespread fraud in the 2020 election. The Department of Homeland Security called the election “the most secure in American history.”
The DHS based their conclusions on air.
Dominion and Smartmatic should have shared the machines and let people have answers as to their reliability. That is all anyone wanted. These companies appear to be aligned with the Democrat Party’s view that we should consider everything about these machines legit without any oversight.
Is it a ploy to take out Fox News?
Dominion is going after Fox because now that States are finding Fraud, Dominion doesn’t want it reported. Dominion has filed other suits, but so far there has been no discovery. Dominion created voting machines designed to fix elections as a selling feature and they performed exactly as designed. No one is saying Dominion Corporation stole the elections, they are saying that Democrats stole the Election using voting machines designed by Dominion. The fact that Dominion makes such machines is Dominion’s problem. This is what is killing their sales, the truth! The First Amendment fully covers FOX in the reporting the Truth; Dominion manufactured Voting Machines that made Stealing elections easy! A real Judge should just throw this out of his court.
The huge problem here is the cowards and traitors at Fox News will settle the suit with a small undiscloed setlement in return for an admission the allegations were not true. This admission will seriously compromise the defense of the other defendants. My best opinion is that this surrender by Fox has been decided before the lawsut was filed.
The consequences of the election coup are enormous and developing as the nation fails.
Barr could have solved the vote machine problem months ago, but the corrupt coward decided that honor and his oath were unimportant.
Fox deserves the turmoil, after turning away from integrity.
The only way Dominion can win any suits is for the governments to continue to withhold evidence. Discovery would ruin Dominion. We already know that the machines were used improperly, connected to the network, numbers changed live, data was downloaded and uploaded by Dominion people who had improper access to the machines during the voting, SW was changed without recertification, odd ratios of votes appeared.
I give you rhe benefit of the doubt when employing the adverb “baselessly” to describe the massive fraud as an effort not to join those media outlets who have corrcetly described the fraud as apparentt and obvious to any one with common sense. Do you really believe the claims of fraud to be “baseless?”
