Fox News tea comes spilling out via Dominion Lawsuit

I just ordered a 20 pound sack of popcorn because I'm going to need it.

This Dominion/Fox lawsuit is going to be delicious. Hope Murdoch the Velociraptor takes it right up his blown out, gaping arsehole.

I hope this bankrupts Murdoch and Fox "News" is no more.

[quote]Tucker Carlson repeatedly frets in text messages to his producer that Trump is a "demonic force" who could "destroy" him if Carlson missteps: "He's the undisputed world champion of that. He could easily destroy us if we play it wrong."

[quote]Hannity: Rudy's "an insane person."

[quote]Ingraham: "Such an idiot."

[quote]Murdoch: "Really crazy stuff."

[quote]Tucker Carlson emerges in the the court filing as absolutely freaking out after the election—hearing from angry viewers and worrying that Fox calling AZ for Biden will kill his golden goose, while also afraid "fucking bitch" Sidney Powell has gone too far.

[quote]Some interesting details about Jeanine Pirro in the Fox News messages: a Fox exec felt sure she was looking for a job at a competitor like Newsmax, and Fox cancelled her Nov. 7 show because they were afraid she'd push stolen election theories: "She is crazy."

This is such a water is wet moment. No one with three brain cells thought Fox et al wasn't gaslighting half the country. We all know Tucker is a complete actor. He's basically Colbert from the Colbert Report. He means maybe one tenth of what he vomits.

And of course most of the Fox viewers won't believe a word of any of these "new" facts. If they see them at all.

It's all so boring to me at this point.

Who would have guessed that Tucker is a neurotic asshole IRL?

Hahaha. Delicious! More!

R3- Fingers crossed! 🤞

Damn, all this shit you kind of knew was true, but somehow to see it all laid out like this is fascinating. What a bunch of whores.

And Tucker revealed as the submissive shop bottom we always knew he was deep down. Trump will destroy me! Trump will absolutely destroy me if he gets mad!!!

They're called receipts, r7. This is *not* boring.

I have waited for years for this day..

[quote]In one set of messages revealed in the court filing, Carlson texted Ingraham, saying that Sidney Powell, an attorney who was representing the Trump campaign, was “lying” and that he had “caught her” doing so. Ingraham responded, “Sidney is a complete nut. No one will work with her. Ditto with Rudy [Giuliani].”

[quote]In multiple instances, Fox News executives and hosts expressed worry over the matter and started to crack down on those at the network who fact-checked election lies. In one case, after White House correspondent Jacqui Heinrich fact-checked a Trump tweet pushing election fraud, Carlson said he wanted her fired.

“Please get her fired,” Carlson told Hannity over text message. “Seriously … what the fuck? I’m actually shocked … It needs to stop immediately, like tonight. It’s measurably hurting the company.”

If only any of these people were capable of feeling shame.

I know, r15.

They are all so afraid of manbaby Trump:

Tucker Carlson repeatedly frets in text messages to his producer that Trump is a "demonic force" who could "destroy" him if Carlson missteps: "He's the undisputed world champion of that. He could easily destroy us if we play it wrong."

Jesus, what scumbags.

I wonder what kompromat Trump has on everyone. He learned at Roy Cohen's disease riddled knee. And he's so visibly stupid, yet so obviously Id driven with a bunch of coke and pills at the ready with whores too, I bet all these halfwitted dirtballs fell for it. On film

The only think Trump could destroy is the toilet bow after a heavy meal of Filet o Fish.

They're Nazis.

They are all clearly scared shirtless of Dump. What dies he know?

I love that they know everybody around them is crazy. Sidney Powell. Crazy bitch. Jeneane Pirro. Crazy drunk. And the craziest twats of all of course are the viewers.

What a shitshow.

I hope the woman being vetted for the FCC turns to Ted Cruz and sais "remember when I said Fox news was just GOP Propaganda and you said I was baised?"

They have done incalculable damage to this country. They should deported at the very least.

Fox News stands to lose up to $4B if they lose both lawsuits against them. Hopefully that will destroy the network.

Not gonna defend them, but there are many republicans who know that Trump is toxic, insane, crazy and dangerous. But he has that party by the balls, so they fall in line. Trump is a cult leader. The only one who can seriously take him on is Rupert and we'll see how that goes.

[quote]They are all clearly scared shirtless of Dump. What dies he know?

He doesn’t know anything, other than how to unleash his band of shrieking howler monkeys to turn against Fox if it pleas3s him.

R26- Will the Murdoch's bail them out? They certainly have the money to.

R28- But hasn't he already tried to that when Fox called the election?

I force myself to daily watch Special Report, anchored by Bret Baier, the hour “newscast” which has long been the network’s signature piece of so-called straight reporting. It’s like watching pro wrestling announcers.

Hold me Glenn Greenwald. I'm scared.

[quote] the Murdoch's

Oh, dear, R29.

Oh I'm totally enjoying it, R12!

Let me be clear: The boring part I was referring to will be how Fox viewers spin it or ignore it.

Well it would be a miracle if Fox went down. But Punditry and politics is already 100% polluted and they all play the same game. LIES and fake news. Division. Deflection. Binaries. People on the left and right have been sufficiently dumbed down and their brains are fried. Any media and professional pundits can step right in an make money if another media company goes bust.

Remember, fascist dictators are bad but they need retarded humans, easily brainwashed, jonesing to worship something.

The right is worse r35. The right is always worse. Always.

Tucker worships Putin, not Trump.

R37- Much, much worse.

Gotcha, r34. It doesn't matter how they spin it. What matters is how the texts are going to play at trial.

They all went to Mar a Lago. They're all on film. How debased does it get? Probably enough to make a Qanoner blush

And no surprise that this litigation is never mentioned.

I do hope they will address Hammy's massive cocaine addiction.

maybe r38, but Trump is so near and the tsar is so far away.

R44- They fear the fat bastard, but why?

He speaks to the idiots who actually watch this propaganda channel and keeps these scumbags employed and rich, R45.

In other words, Dump is their meal ticket.

Because, R45, as has been pointed out, he’s a cult leader controlling a substantial share of their audience.

I would love to see Fox News go down, but frankly I don't see that. I also don't see Dump dying soon, but his death would release a lot of national tension. When the cult leader goes, the cult is over. That's what needs to happen in this country. But when.

Imagine the depths of despair that Tucker, Ingraham, and Hannity must feel in a dark, stone-cold, crevice of their soul that they have to display public obeisance to the cowardly, ignorant, insecure, stupid, bigoted, lower than a snake's instep likes of Donald Trump?

It's one thing for those 3 to feel that way about their employer Rupert Murdoch, evil, powerful, wealthy, diabolical piece of shit that he is. At least he's worthy of that.

but Trump?

Ugh.

R27 I bet a consortium of right wing media companies buy up Fox news cheap.

Hey, guys and ghouls. This goes out from Dominion to Rupert and Tucker and the whole gang at "The Studio."

[quote] Imagine the depths of despair that Tucker, Ingraham, and Hannity must feel in a dark, stone-cold, crevice of their soul that they have to display public obeisance to the cowardly, ignorant, insecure, stupid, bigoted, lower than a snake's instep likes of Donald Trump?

R50, it's not like they were ever meant for a higher calling.

[quote] I also don't see Dump dying soon, but his death would release a lot of national tension.

I don't want Trump to die. I want to see him live in poverty, at times ridiculed and ignored.

But, if there's one thing that gives me glee, it's that I'm convinced that Melania, his children and the Repug Powers That Be live every miserable moment with the following about Trump: Just Die Already!

That tickles me beyond belief. They can't wait for Trump to keel over dead.

[quote]Imagine the depths of despair that Tucker, Ingraham, and Hannity must feel in a dark, stone-cold, crevice of their soul that they have to display public obeisance to the cowardly, ignorant, insecure, stupid, bigoted, lower than a snake's instep likes of Donald Trump?

Especially for a country club republican like Tucker. He's gotta hate what calls itself the modern republican party. These rubes and hicks were never supposed to be calling the shots. They were only useful for their votes, but they could be controlled. Look what happened. Look who's in control, people they consider the dregs of humanity.

R54- If only they would make it happen...

I hope these lying shitbags are forced to have these texts (AND MORE!!!) played on a loop on ol' FOX news for a week. Just their texts, showing what they really think and are saying behind MAGAts backs.

Nice plug for your book Mr. Sommer.

They created the monster and now...

Nothing ever sticks to these creeps. Their audience has the collective IQ of a turnip and they love being lied to.

What R60 said.

R60- They really do. They like being idiots. It suits them.

Right, R18?

They’re all such lying trash. They have zero respect for their viewers.

God. These people and this network are such a disgraceful sham. They have genuinely destroyed the fabric of America, and for what? Their salaries and some very thin illusion of power/celebrity.

It’s incredible that Americans have allowed themselves to be bamboozled by an Australian National, whose primary goal is to serve the interests of his bank accounts, foreign oligarchs and high ranking foreign nationals in countries that despise us.

If Murdoch goes, another will take his place. He's showed that appealing to the vegetable crowd is a guaranteed moneymaker.

Old Man Murdoch and Elon Musk were sitting together at the Super Bowl. The camera was trained on them for quite a bit. Murdoch was having trouble unwrapping a hot dog. It was like he had never seen anything like it before.

Now that he's well past the age of living long enough to embark on a fifth wife, old cunt Murdoch must know his days are numbered. But, like Dump, when is he going to die? I know nothing will change one way or the other with the mess he's consciously created, but it sure will be nice to have him off the planet.

[quote] They have zero respect for their viewers.

Well, R63, that's something I have in common with them. I don't have respect for their viewers, either.

Celebrate.

This is why I started getting my news from REAL PATRIOTS like Steve Bannon, Ben Shapiro and Marjorie Taylor Greene! FOX News is part of the swamp that my president Donald J Trump will drain in 2024 when he takes Washington DC and American back from all of the groomers, pedos, liars, freaks, trannies, and commies! Go woke, go broke FOX!

Just go eat your sexualized M&Ms you groomer, baby blood drinking commies while us REAL AMERICANS scour Facebook and TikTok memes for Qdrops to find the real Epstein's manifest that proves the liberal swamp media is hiding it all from us and how My President and president Putin are fighting together against the New World Order to save us and our gas stove from socialism! Oh and 2A!!!!

Fox News got some of its information on “election fraud” allegations against Dominion Voting Systems from a woman who claims she got the information through a form of “time travel."

^ Was the woman Miss Cleo?

[quote]Was the woman Miss Cleo?

Don't drag me into this mess.

The election wasn't honest.

R73, yes, it was. And Fox News knows it. So does Trump, his advisors told him there was no election fraud

Tens of millions of people know it wasn't.

Was this future person giving FUX News these deets about election fraud related to the Trump doctor who said demonic possession caused medical issues like diabetes and uterine fibroids? 🤣

R75, they "know" it wasn't because of the lies Fox News told them

CNN: Fox News executives refused to let Trump on-air when he called in during January 6 attack, Dominion says

This is DL, r73/r75 - you need to up your game here.

Oh, this is delicious and I don’t use that term loosely, for obvious reasons.

Which reminds me…someone upthread said they were buying a ton of popcorn. Can I have just a little bit, please? Due to a medical issue I can’t get over to the store right now, so you’d be a sweetie if I can have some of yours. I’ll give you some of mine when I get it.

MAGAts are all pretending they weren't lied to by FOX and Anusmouth, for the last couple years.

PATHETIC!

"Tens of millions of people know it wasn't."

And hundreds of billions of people know that people like you are complete and total morons incapable of independent thought and action because you believe whatever happy horseshit some other moron like Sean Hannity or Fucker Carlson spoon feeds you.

It’s about time we’re seeing some movement on this case.

Maybe they'll use the "No one should believe us because we're obviously full of shit" defense like Tucker Carlson did in another case

Why the fuck doesn't ANY reporter ask these people- "You claim to be a Christian, you want the 10 commandments posted in every public school, what does "Thou shall not bear false witness against your neighbor" mean to you, you lying piece of dog shit?

We need to be attacking these religious assholes from the right, with their own rules= "Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy", No one is calling for no work on Sundays, not even the biggest religious freaks? Why not? The questions should be asked of these hypocrites. The "Christian Card" is the highest card in the deck. Untouchable.

[quote]Tens of millions of people know it wasn't.

Tens of millions of people also believe in the Loch Ness Monster.

R85 “If the malls are closed, what would we do after church?”

You're supposed to be at home frying things, serving COLD beer and sucking your husband's dick during halftime, like the bible says.

What r79 said.

And notice that that people like r73 and r75 buy, at face value, without question, whatever lies and nonsense that comes out of Trump's mouth but, when shown actual, real video evidence, for instance, the Paul Pelosi break-in, and that Trump refused to obey a subpoena to transmit documents, suddenly they'll say "They're hiding something! There' more to the story!"

For sure, Trump got one thing right in his life- He declared himself a Republican. He did so because any seasoned Can Man knows Job 1 is choosing vulnerable, stupid marks.

As obvious as it is to point out, it bears repeating- Trumpers are idiots.

“What does it say about the current state of the Republican Party, or the viewers, or the party itself, that Carlson is still lying despite the fact that he got busted, with receipts, yet again, being exposed as a charlatan and a fraud and abject coward?”

Two things about Tuck.

His mother left him out of her will, which he had then had to contest

He asked Hunter Biden to write a recommendation for his son.

Time travel = hitting the meth pipe. Again.

I like it when Tucker Swanson McNear Carlson talks dirty. His affect is WASPy blue blood, but his mouth is potty.

Last night on tuck. Kamala caused the war in Ukraine. Really

R19 Trump probably has loads of kompromat from David Pecker of the National Enquirer.

Oh, please. Trump has less than nothing on these FOX people and whatever he has, is the kind of shit, viewers don't care about. They're scared of the viewers because while on-air, they tell them how all of those dark people are violent and coming to get them, they know it's their own white trash viewers who are the violent ones who don't want to be told the truth. I mean Tucker vilifies someone they've never heard of and immediately that person gets death threats and stalked by his viewers. Those black women in GA have had their lives ruined and they're not alone.

FOX is scared of what their own viewers are capable of because they saw what thousands of them did when they couldn't handle losing in a democracy. They saw what they're capable of when they tried to kidnap the governor of MI or with mask mandates. MAGAt whites are a terrorist group at this point. Scary fucking people.

I hope you are all prepared for this fight. Their strategy of exhausting/wearing down our side has been extremely effective, so put on the coffee because this isn’t ending anytime soon.

Defeatist bullshit.

The evidence is strongly compelling in this case, r97.

Fox News is one of the biggest and most successful propaganda machines of all time, up there with Pravda in the Soviet Union back in the day with their audience. Fortunately here we have other outlets of information, but if MAGATs had their way they’d shut down all other news operations and declare Fox News official state media.

Well sort of r100. The obvious panic going on in all those emails was that viewers weren't as attached to Fox News as they were to their own lies and their Cult of Trump. If Fox News wouldn't tell them the lies they wanted to hear, they were going to all rush to Newsmax, which had promised to do exactly that.

R95, I bet he does

Who was the bottom at the coke fueled Mar-a-lago orgies? Was it Cucker Tarlson? Was a train pulled on him by the likes of Trump, Roger Stone, and Steve Bannon?

For some reason I've just always assumed Tucker was into spanking. Maybe it's his whole would-be British schoolboy vibe. Did he dabble in the mansex at any point? Maybe, maybe not.

But regardless, I think there's a dominatrix out there with a story to tell.

It is pretty clear to me that FOX News is trying to weasel its way out of the lawsuits by claiming that the "news" station is innocent and that some "rogue" employees went all in for Trump without the "news" station's, and poor dear innocent Rupert's, approval.

You know, the disclaimers like ...

I sure hope Rupert and FOX News won't get away with that.

Oh, that's gonna be a tough one when the "rogue employees" are the primetime lineup r105. But what the hell, give it a try Fox. Lying is in your nature, and Big Lying even more so.

Bankrupt Fox news 📰

r107 I hope your response trends on twitter.

[quote]if MAGATs had their way they’d shut down all other news operations and declare Fox News official state media.

Fox News used to be good before the LIBS took over! I get all my information and do my research on Newsmax and Mike Lindell TV!

Deplorable comments on my socials are ignoring the responses made by FOX personalities themselves, claiming that everything was "...taken out of context!" by the lying MSM and the Biden Crime Family to distract from the fact that America blew up poor little Russia's pipeline and that Hunter has naked pictures!

These people raise Tide Pod eaters, obviously.

Fox knew it was lying about Dominion but kept on doing it for higher ratings.

Fox needs to lose this case and be bankrupted

I am loving this scandal SO HARD.

SNL needs to be working on this skit as a cold opener.

Eviscerate and humiliate them live.

They do tend to bring the suck lately r112, but maybe this can knock them out of their stupidity and laziness. It does seem like a gift to comedy everywhere.

They were fucking great just last week, R113, where have you been?

They did have a good week, actually two weeks ago I think, that is true. I'm not sure it was particularly sharp politically, and it's been awhile on that. But they have another week to do something clever, since I think it's a repeat tonight.

[quote]and it's been awhile on that.

Oh, dear.

Is FoxNews reporting on this?

Yes, R117. They claim all of the texts that are being quoted/attributed to them by Dominion were actually typed by Hunter Biden's huge penis and it needs to be LOCKED UP!

I can't wait for all the indictments to come out.

Good times.

If the J6 insurrectionists had higher brain function, they would take this information and bring the biggest, messiest lawsuit in the history of America against FOX News and DJT.

Their lives are ruined while the FOX News spokespersons, owners, and DJT continue to lie and grift. They all knew they were lying and used those people, knowing they were throwing their lives away. They didn't give a fuck!

Forget class action lawsuits for Mesothelioma and Camp LaJune. J6 MAGAts need to nut up and go class action all over these scumbags.

It's about mass manipulation that goes unchecked and unchallenged. Our society is built on that fucked up foundation where people are deliberately raised to be stupid mouth breathers, so they can be manipulated by mass manipulation tools like religion or news media.

If Fox goes under, it only means that their right-wing competitors gain traction in the market for disseminating fake news.

Not necessarily only that, r122.

It would guarantee a huge loss for Murdoch and it would mean Fucker, Hannity, et al. no longer have jobs.

If people lived by the ten commandments the world would be a much better place - but republicans don't, dems don't either but at least honor more of the ten. I thought the goal of a Christian was to be more christ like? You know, feed the poor, heal the sick, don't judge others, forgive transgressions, you know radical WOKE things.

"Here’s what Fox hosts said publicly vs. what they said behind closed doors."

[quote]If people lived by the ten commandments the world would be a much better place

You really only have to live by the Golden Rule, r124.

Well, you really don't need the first three commandments. That's just Yahweh being all needy. And the others do get difficult pretty quickly. Is it really wrong to lie in every and all circumstances? How about lies of omission, or should you be out there blathering your "truth" all day long? Does stealing include charging interest or making money off money, as was often taught in earlier centuries? How much do you have to honor mother and father when they're being stupid and annoying old koots? Is all "coveting" really that bad, even a passing thought of wishing you had something just cause you saw it? Adultery? Yeah, bad. Does it include all fornication? Then no, it's just more puritan bullshit.

I dunno, but keeping track of all those commandments can get confusing. To me “don’t be an asshole” covers them all. The Republicans don’t live by this simple rule.

Christianity is religion for dummies. The core values and instructions are very straightforward and easy to comprehend.

Christian Bible thumpers are the main culprits who disobey the basic teachings of Christ.

r129 the concept that god wrote ten rules to live by then needed to write another 900 pages to really nail down what he meant is kind of stupid for people to believe. If God is all powerful he would turn to to dust if you broke a rule instantly, not let you in his really cool theme park in the sky.

Is that why God fearing Christians flaunt the teaching of the Christ? They were not turned to dust immediately after violating their faith.

MAGAts/Fox viewers are like battered wives. They keep coming back to the abusers (ie. Fox news and the Republican party, who know EXACTLY what they're saying and doing) time and again. They probably secretly like it and crave the abuse.

They're sick, damaged people. Unfortunately, there's a lot of them in America. Too bad Covid didn't kill off more of them.

Poolboy antics

FOX News only lies to me because he loves me! He only makes me believe in an alternate reality with alternate facts because he's trying to protect me! He only encouraged me to throw my life away on January 6th to get me to prove my love for him is real! You people just don't understand the purity of true love!

I wonder how Newsmax is handling this. It seems like a huge gift to them: Hey wingnuts! Wanna know who doesn't despise you and lie to you and think you're all stupid and crazy? US! (they probably do all that, but so far no proof.)

R134 gets my drift.

I would like to know what magats think about their prophet, Tucker Swanson Frozen Foods Heiress Carlson asking Hunter Ten Inches of Man Flesh Biden asking for a reference for his son.

r137 By asking for a reference you mean he sucked my dick like a bitch, gagged after getting six in and then begged me.

R138, go on...

Wonder how MAGATs are processing this. Are they even aware? For example, the Murdoch-owned NY Post has spent the week ginning up non-stories of alleged Democratic atrocities (especially Hunter).

The post is drooling over Biden dick pics.

FauxNews isn’t covering this story, so MAGATS don’t know about it.

f would never watch FUXX NEWWZ but I would imagine right now they're non-stop blaming Joe Biden and Pete for the Ohio train derailment.

NewsMax can't cover it they have they are also being sued by Dominion.

NewsMax is such a shithole den of lies and idiocy that they can't even be honest with their viewers why DirectTv dropped them. They know their viewers are fucking morons who believe anything they're told, so they've made them think "liberals" are involved in silencing them thar NewsMax patriots!

What happened to Howie Kurtz?! From WaPo to Fox News?!

Why is that guy at R146 in orangeface? Did all the FOX spokespersons start painting themselves that color in solidarity with Anusmouth?

Fox will get a massive verdict and have to pay hundreds of millions and it will be appealed. They end up paying almost nothing.

"Tucker Carlson being told he’s the worst human being known to mankind"

R148 = Nostradamus.

More like Nostradumbass.

The best part is the scene that must be unfolding at Mar a Lardo. Trump must be livid that his syncophants at FOX know him for the lying grifter that he truly is. And more evidence that nobody sane believes he lost the election.

You mean "he won the election"?

r153 How is the sanitarium?

He knows he is the worst person alive and relishes this distinction

Dominion brings it, for it's lawsuit.

"The 1st 44 pages of @dominionvoting 's remarkable brief, unsealed Thursday, in its defamation case against Fox News is wall-to-wall smoking guns. You’ve read the highlights, but I hope this thread might reveal the narrative arc."

"… In sum, Dominion alleges that Fox knowingly amplified election lies to avoid losing ratings to Newsmax. At Fox, “respecting our audience” and “protecting the brand” became the euphemisms and excuses for serving up the lies its viewers wanted to hear. …"

… On election night, Fox News viewers were livid when Fox was 1st to project Biden’s victory in AZ. Tucker Carlson immediately spotted & decried the threat that truth-telling posed to Fox’s brand …

"Carlson: “We worked really hard to build what we have. Those fuckers [i.e., the straight-shooters in its election news unit] are destroying our credibility. It enrages me.”

… Carlson also feared that Trump could ruin Fox if it bluntly reported the truth of his loss. “What [Trump’s] good at is destroying things. He’s the undisputed world champion of that. He could easily destroy us if we play it wrong.”

"… On 11/7, when Fox joined other media in calling the election for Biden, the viewer exodus to Newsmax accelerated. Murdoch wrote CEO Scott: “Getting creamed by CNN! Guess our viewers don’t want to watch it.”

"Carlson was livid: “Do the executives understand how much credibility and trust we’ve lost with our audience? We’re playing with fire, for real. … an alternative like Newsmax could be devastating to us.”

"Then, on 11/8/20, Sidney Powell appeared on Maria Bartiromo’s show, spewing lies about Dominion. Amplifying Powell’s lies offered Fox a way to woo back viewers, Dominion says. Texts & emails support its claim."

[quote]On election night, Fox News viewers were livid when Fox was 1st to project Biden’s victory in AZ

Pathetic fucking babies need their baby bottle of lies.

"Everyone at Fox appears to have understood that Powell’s claims were absurd. The day before Bartiromo had Powell on, Powell had given Bartiromo an email from her source, per Dominion. The source admitted her own elections claims were “pretty wackadoodle” … "

"… and went on to claim “that Justice Scalia ‘was purposefully killed at the annual Bohemian Grove camp … during a weeklong human hunting expedition’ and that former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes (who died in 2017) and Rupert Murdoch ..."

"… “ ‘secretly huddle most days to determine how best to portray Mr. Trump as badly as possible.’ … The author continued, ‘Who am I? And how do I know all this? … I’ve had the strangest dreams since I was a little girl. … I was internally decapitated, and yet, I live …’ ”

"… “ ‘The Wind tells me I’m a ghost, but I don’t believe it.’” … "

I sincerely hope Dominion's lawyers are prepared to go all out on this and have the objective of grinding FOX to dust. I also hope the gov't (Executive/Senate) and ready to enact laws to prevent this type of false and dangerous "reporting" under the guise of 1st amendment.

"… On 11/9, Fox News CEO Scott announced that “today is day one” of a plan to win them back. “[T]he AZ [call] was damaging but we will highlight our stars and plant flags letting the viewers know we hear them and respect them,” she wrote."

"… On 11/12 Fox reporter Jacqui Heinrich had the temerity to post a tweet debunking Trump’s lies about Dominion & also referencing broadcasts by Sean Hannity & Lou Dobbs. Tucker Carlson promptly told Hannity to get her fired … "

"… Carlson: “Please get her fired. Seriously What the fuck? I’m actually shocked. … It needs to stop immediately, like tonight. It's measurably hurting the company. The stock price is down. Not a joke.”

Keep in mind, they can't use the excuse of merely "reporting" because Dominion --in real time-- sent FOX thousands and thousands of corrections and FOX just ignored it all and reported none of push back by Dominion, while amplifying complete bullshit without ANY evidence from psychos like Powell.

"… Word reached CEO Scott, who denounced Heinrich to Fox News president Jay Wallace, among others: “She has serious nerve doing this and if this gets picked up, viewers are going to be further disgusted.” Heinrich deleted the fact-check."

of the*

"By 11/12 Dominion had begun sending “setting-the-record-straight” emails to Fox personnel—eventually 3,600 of them—with links to info debunking the lies about Dominion."

"... Meanwhile, Fox News’ “internal fact-checking department” investigated the truth about Dominion, per Dominion’s brief. A paragraph apparently quoting from the unit’s findings has been redacted from Dominion’s brief at Fox’s insistence."

"On 11/19, after Powell & Giuliani’s famously deranged press conference, Fox’s White House correspondent Kristen Fisher dared to debunk their claims. She was swiftly chastised by higher-ups for not “respecting our audience.”

I am grateful for Dominion using the American court system to expose these freaks.

"Fox anchor Dana Perino also tried to tell the truth, noting that the press conference might prompt a lawsuit. This, too, provoked grave concern among higher-ups. CEO Scott wrote: “You can’t give the crazies an inch right now … "

"… “they are looking for and blowing up all appearances of disrespect to the audience.” Elsewhere, CEO Scott wrote: “The audience feels like we crapped on [them] and we have damaged their trust and belief in us. … [w]e cannot smirk at our viewers any longer.”

"… On Nov 20 Dominion sent Fox a defamation demand letter. Yet Fox continued to amplify the lies, per Dominion. As late as Jan 26, Carlson allowed Mike Lindell to spew the same conspiracy theories on his show."

"… As powerful as this brief is, much of it remains redacted. The most heavily redacted section is one describing how Fox allegedly “actively participated in shaping” the election-lie narrative. … "

"… That section appears to discuss Fox’s proactive interactions with Powell, the Trump Campaign and/or the White House. Dominion has filed notice that it is challenging all redactions. We will almost certainly be learning more."

Can they get Hannity, Ingraham and Carlson to testify? I would love to see these people cross-examined for ONCE IN THEIR LIVES.

They never go on other shows or are held accountable for their batshit crazy statements.

To get these fuckers to go up on a stand and admit their lies is NECESSARY. Are they not allowing cameras in the courtroom?

Reporting facts, is "insulting" to the my crackpipe audience.

You kind of think to yourself, how bad can it be, and then it’s much worse than you thought. Intentionally pushing lies for ratings and $$. It’s a game to them, and what they’ve done is create chaos and culture wars just to keep viewers. They don’t give a shit about facts or integrity; it’s about making up what their viewers want to hear in order to not lose market share. They should all be lined up and shot, and FauxNews burned to the ground.

R187 - what I'm liking is can this open the gates to more lawsuits? I'd like to see them go after Hannity, Ingraham and Carlson individually after this.

Are there other companies or people they've attacked with false info? There has to be some others.

[quote] Can they get Hannity, Ingraham and Carlson to testify?

If they are named defendants in the suit, they must be deposed or they lose by default. I cannot imagine they are not named defendants.

DL attorneys: Is there any possibility that Fox and staff will be destroyed financially by this lawsuit?

For those interested, the entire 192 page brief is available online:

Absolutely, r190, and I believe that’s Dominion’s (rightful) goal. Put them out of business and have the people who knowingly spread false information about the company spend the rest of their lives paying for it and die miserable and broke.

Well, you’ve got Carlson basically talking out both sides of his ass and saying they need to push false narratives in order to not lose money. That sounds pretty culpable to me.

Question here for the DL lawyers--what are the penalties for lying under oath in a civil lawsuit? I wouldn't doubt that some of the FUXX people, if deposed, would lie their asses off. I'm thinking of Cucker Tarlson and his many asses of course.

I know in a criminal trial you can go up for perjury, but I'm wondering if it's the same for lawsuits and if any DA's would have the nads to even pursue it.

They're going to have trouble lying with those receipts, r194.

[quote] I know in a criminal trial you can go up for perjury, but I'm wondering if it's the same for lawsuits and if any DA's would have the nads to even pursue it.

Perjury is a crime. Period. Whether it’s in a civil suit or a criminal action, it’s a crime.

R196 - but rarely pursued or indicted. Particularly in civil cases.

That’s another story, r197. But that person asked if there was a difference between perjury in a criminal trial and a civil trial. There isn’t.

As you said, will a DA pursue it? That depends, but it is unusual.

^ That was my point, that even if the FUXX assholes lie, nothing would be done about it.

This isn't just any civil case, r197.

Not necessarily true, r199. If they can show they committed blatant perjury, that will have an impact on the jury. Obviously, the jury could punish them for that.

MAGAt death threats towards Dominion employees and their families coupled with repeated, purposeful lies might intice them to be the rare case who does, R197

R200 - it is a civil case - there aren't special rules just because it's about election fraud.

I would love to see it but I doubt it would happen. Nothing ever happens to Republicans, it seems.

[quote]Trump must be livid that his syncophants

Oh, dear.

[quote] [R200] - it is a civil case - there aren't special rules just because it's about election fraud.

Of course there aren’t special rules, that’s not the point he was making. Certain cases bring a lot more publicity, notoriety, and set precedent due to their very nature. This isn’t your average civil case that no one has even heard of, much less is following.

In a case of this magnitude in terms of visibility, I’m not too certain anyone would be allowed to get away with flagrant perjury without consequences.

Cops frequently lie on the stand, yet are rarely prosecuted. Mark Fuhrman, however, was charged with perjury for claiming he never used that slur. Hardly even instrumental to the case, yet because of the nature of the case, he was prosecuted.

Meanwhile, Fox has filed a counterclaim arguing that Dominion has no evidence to support its "staggering" $1.6 billion damages claim against the network.

A five-week trial in the case is scheduled to begin on April 17.

R206 - that bullshit will go nowhere. The judge already decided there was enough evidence to move forward with the case.

It's all a ploy to convince their viewers. Or - the Delaware court could be packed with MAGAs.

"The Wind tells me I’m a ghost, but I don’t believe it."

Fox News Is Absolutely Screwed After Internal Documents Reveal Their Corruption

[quote]that bullshit will go nowhere. The judge already decided there was enough evidence to move forward with the case.

It's actually not a denial of the evidence of malfeasance -- Fox is basically claiming that its malfeasance hasn't caused Dominion $1.6 billion worth of damage.

" nuffin ever happens",

Merrick Garland is way overdue in filing indictments against Trump & his insurrection planning cronies.

This wimpy approach has made a mockery of the U.S. justice system. NY is not any better, Mr. Bragg.

Garland was never going to do anything.

Wah-wah Garland! Wah-wah Garland!

You’re tedious, R214.

In what way, r215?

Frequent Fox feature. Some weeks it is near daily.

The thing is, that dude FUX had crunching the numbers for their election night coverage was one of THE BEST in the business. I remember reading about him and his team about a month before the election.

I believe it was on CNN and the reporter asked something like “why would you want someone who may be able to predict Biden will win before any other outlet? Won’t that upset your viewers?”

The reply was “Biden won’t win and if he does then we will have called it first and still have the best election coverage”

That dude and his team were ALL fired after they predicted Arizona correctly. Since he is the best, I’m sure he got picked up by some other outlet but it just goes to show that FUX traffics in LIES. If you refuse to LIE , you don’t work there long.

Just checked in the MAGAts on my socials. They don't care that they were lied to by FAUX. They don't care, they don't care, THEY DON'T CARE!!!!

Like the children’s equivalent of putting your fingers in your ears and going “la La La La La lalala I can’t hear you!!!”

Lying is a mortal sin in their Christian faith.

^We only have to be Christians when we’re in church. We can do as we please when we aren’t!

Please. They're not even Christian in those garbage churches where the pastor is a hateful MAGAt pile of shit

If this was CNN or MSNBC that did this, noted "media critic" Miss Glenn Greenwald would be screaming about it 24/7.

He hasn't made a peep on social media, preferring to concentrate on Don Lemon's "prime" remark.

And he went on Tucker Saturday night after the report was public.

Most of their pastors are child molesters.

No, R219, because they accept “alternate facts” as truth. They hear what they want to hear.

[quote]Just checked in the MAGAts on my socials. They don't care that they were lied to by FAUX. They don't care, they don't care, THEY DON'T CARE!!!!

Because as LBJ said: "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

It hasn't changed. They just want to be treated as "better" even when they really aren't. Anyone who's seen a MAGAt rally knows that feedlot is far from the best and brightest this country has to offer. Many of the turds arrested on 1/6 had priors.

[quote] Because as LBJ said: "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

I have that quote at the ready on my phone.

"The wind tells me I'm a ghost" sounds like something Jodie Foster would have said in Nell

Tucker is nothing more than a star being pushed by the right wing media for right wing idiots to worship him.

It all makes sense if you see Fox News as a right wing Teen Beat media outlet where the viewers jerk off to Tucker and any other Fox News host telling them lie after lie after lie. The viewers love being lied to, because it gets them off and they want to believe in that reality the right wing has established for them for decades now (just like media entertainment claims that Hollywood is so liberal and all the closet case actors and sport stars are so straight and like to take romantic walks at even more romantic beaches and love women with inner beauty who make them laugh).

And that fuckface Kevin McCarthy has now handed over all of the 1/6 videos to Putin-whore Tucker Carlson. Unreal.

Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskinMcCarthy giving 40,000 hrs of Jan. 6 tape to a pro-Putin journalist is an astounding ethical collapse. What security precautions were taken to keep this from becoming a roadmap for 2024 insurrection? Why isn’t it available to all media & public? Smell the MAGA propaganda coming.

Why does Raskin call Carlson a journalist.

Because he's a Dem and far too polite.

"Lying is a mortal sin in their Christian faith."

Maybe once upon a time many decades ago. Now, however, it's SOP for all of them.

This is the problem with every network. The news should not be concerned about profit.

R235 is guilty of bothsidesism.

^ Yep. No news network is perfect but Fox is really in a class of its own (and not in a good way)

No, R235 is correct. Back in my day the news was expected NOT to make any profit. Reporting the news was the extremely low price networks and local stations paid for getting permission to air their shows and basically print money for almost nothing.

The US government - ostensibly we the people - own the airwaves. We charge them next to nothing.

In the 70's the news started changing. They brought it pretty co-anchors and saving kittens caught in trees and "human interest" stories taking the place of almost half the news time. It's a 30 minute show. Subtract commercials, weather and sports and that leaves about 15 for news. Split that with lost puppy stories and is it any wonder that people got so fucking stupid? No it is not.

R238, and yet Fox News is much worse than any other channel. Don't call people stupid when you're a "both sides" Fox News defender

Fuck that vile propaganda network.

Faux News was NEVER a legit news network. This channel reports lies, not news.

Lies are broadcast, 24/7. Faux New is a channel which brainwashes ignorant people. PERIOD.

R239, you're delusional and you see monsters where there aren't any.

If Faux Noise monstrous? Yes, yes it is. Am I monstrous for explaining the change in news programming I experienced in the 70's? No, no I am not.

Read and learn, child, you'll eventually get the hang of this "internet posting" thing.

[quote]Just checked in the MAGAts on my socials. They don't care that they were lied to by FAUX. They don't care, they don't care, THEY DON'T CARE!!!!

Nobody has any illusions the MAGA will care.

But if the lawsuit succeeds in imposing huge $$ penalties on Fox, that's still a reputational blow and financially crippling. This should also tell the likes of Newsmaxx they could be next so better think twice next time.

r239 I am not defending Fox News because I don't consider them the news. They are a GOP propaganda channel but because. What I am saying for you young kids, there was a time when the news did not have to perform in the ratings. They were not forced to compete, they just read the news, with maybe an editorial piece near the end that offered airtime for a competing opinion. Once that changed, the news changed. CNN used to just be a 24-hour news channel. You would never hear a story about a Khardasian or Kanye on the news. That was fluff for Entertainment tonight or gossip rags. Once the networks started counting ratings, the competition to be number one drove the news. Fox was born out of that. Rupert Murdoch created Fox News with the premise that the regular news was liberally biased.

FUXX is also shown on every tv at truck stops, restaurants, gyms, etc. across the country. I can't tell you how many times I've turned on the tv in a hotel room and it is pre-set to FUXX.

If they were to go away, would those places put on Newsmax or OAN? I doubt it since they're totally batshit nuts, it would be a bridge too far. However, with CNN continuing to pander to the right, I guess they can just pick up the propaganda slack.

If anything happens to FUX, some other billionaire will step into the breach with a new "moderate" right network. It's too profitable to lose.

[quote] But if the lawsuit succeeds in imposing huge $$ penalties on Fox, that's still a reputational blow and financially crippling.

It wasn't and never will be about reputation. Conservatives decide for themselves what is legitimate. With Trump as president, Liberals discovered that Q-Anon conspiracies are legitimate enough for Deplorables to take action. It doesn't matter what right wing bigots can hide behind (Bible, FOX News, The Drudge Report, Breitbart, Q-Anon), as long as they declare it as a valid excuse to express their bigotry.

You can tell right wing followers a million times that they are being used by shameless snake oil salesmen profiteers, their ego and pride will prevent them to change their mind and stick with what they feel most comfortable with, and that is casting blame on minorities for the right wing followers' misfortune in their lives.

In light of the most recent disclosures, will Tucker ever again deign to entertain a critic?

[quote] Just checked in the MAGAts on my socials. They don't care that they were lied to by FAUX. They don't care, they don't care, THEY DON'T CARE!!!!

They're like the OJ jurors. Or those from the Jim Crow South. All impervious to fact.

[quote]They're like the OJ jurors. Or those from the Jim Crow South. All impervious to fact.

This is 100% true. That Klepper comedian from The Daily Show was interviewing sone female MAGA moron, she actually told Klepper that the Ukraine is not being attacked by Russia. To a certain segment of Americans, facts no longer exist.

This dolt said "All the Ukainians being interviewed are actors! I don't believe what is being shown or the photos!" When Klepper told her he interviewed Ukrainian citizens who fled to Poland. she said, "They are actors too!" Keeper pressed on, "What about the devastation done to the cities in the Ukraine all the dead bodies." The MAGAt dolt said, "That's all Photoshop, all fake!"

When the fuck did Americans become this easily brainwashed by Faux News and other conspiracy outlets? It's assumed these easily swayed morons were always out there, but that orange reality show freak and failed businessman, Drumpf, and all these other vile outlets, simply emboldened these ignorant racist hateful Americans.

r249, stupid freaks have always existed. What has changed is the media treating stupidity, ignorance, right wing conspiracy theories as a valid opinion that needs to get more media exposure than facts and the truth. And that is all thanks to those who own certain media outlets.

I believe all of this type of "thinking" grew out of what happened in the '60s and '70s. Between Vietnam, Watergate, and related subsequent scandals (Iran-Contra, etc.) people started to distrust everything -- government, news, etc. And while some healthy skepticism and critical thinking are good things, it's gone WAY too far, where now everything is a conspiracy or fake news.

Conspiracy Theorists are the worst. Just the dregs of humanity. R249's example of what that degenerate said about the people of Ukraine and their suffering is beyond offensive. There is no fix for that type of stupidity or lunacy.

Rupert Murdoch, one ticket to Hell is awaiting pickup.

Can't happen soon enough R253! That vampire Murdoch deserves whatever he gets. The damage he's done. Not just to the US but also to Australia and the UK.

Fox News played a powerful part in Dump gaining momentum then notoriety/adoration with the Dump cult members. Then Fox News steadfastly supported and encouraged him and his cult members to a frenzy even after the election results lies until Rupert decided it was all too crazy and he couldn't control him. But by then the damage was done. Murdoch and Fox News played a big part in the Dump presidency happening and all through it, setting up and spreading the lies that the voting was rigged and the election results were invalid. And we all know what happened next. Fox News had already set the scene for the insurrection to take place even after Murdoch reigned everything in and dumped support for Dump and admitted the election results were valid and legal. Then Dump lit the fuse. And we later find out Dump had been planning and intending 12 months beforehand to say he won the election even if he didn't.

There is no way Dominion can lose this right?

[quote] There is no way Dominion can lose this right?

Depends on the judge. If the court case gets a right wing one, it will make it a lot harder for Dominion to get more from Rupert than a half-assed apology.

^ Libel cases against the media are notoriously hard to win. This, however, may be the exception.

The movie Idiocracy was not fiction.

[quote]after Murdoch reigned everything in

Oh, dear!

Rupert Murdoch personally hated Trump, yet he knew thet Trump was useful to him--so he promoted him at every chance. It just shows what a vile sociopath Murdoch is--it'll be a great day when he kicks the bucket. Unfortunately, his spawn are just as evil.

How much money is enough? Do you have to ruin the world to be filthy stinking rich???

[quote]If the court case gets a right wing one,

When in the hell did we get to this point when judges didn't simply look at the facts? Roe v. Wade was decided on the facts which is why conservative judges also decided in favor of a woman's right.

The fact that an unqualified person like Aileen Cannon is still on the bench is an absolute disgrace.

R260, when Roe was decided, abortion was not the right/left litmus test it ultimately became.

[quote]When in the hell did we get to this point when judges didn't simply look at the facts?

I’m not certain we’re there yet. Remember, a lot of dump-appointed judges ruled against him in his ridiculous election lawsuits.

God, FOX viewers are fucking morons.

I mean despite the actual proof of Tucker Carlson calling Trump a "demonic force," they sit there like braindead zombies watching this doughy turd praise Trump and just ignoring what he really thinks.

You're right, R262. At least some of them take their job seriously, but people like Cannon need to be removed when it's clear even to her own that she's not fit to be a judge.

Lachlan Murdoch is as much or more disturbing than Rupert. They need to be expelled from the USA though those tycoons have dual citizenships.

They don't belong here and are unworthy of their financial success. They deserve to be exposed and bankrupted.

Wouldn't it be great as part of the settlement, Fox had to give Dominion three hours of Prime time. One hour each for Carlson, Hannity, and Ingraham. And in each hour, a Dominion lawyer interviews the host and the host had to admit every lie he/she told on air, admit they knew the election was never stolen, and apologize to their viewers for YEARS of dishonesty.

From then on, each show would have to open with a disclaimer that the program was NOT news, just opinion, and the views expressed are the views solely of the hosts and guests. And the disclaimer has to run at the beginning of every segment.

Of course it will never happen. But we can fantasize.

How do their lawyers explain that they were sent thousands upon thousands of emails in real time by Dominion to correct the lies they were telling on air and ignored them all to put on a Sidney Powell to just outright lie?

For the purposeful and repetitive harassment, threats to their employees and their employees families lives, and damage to their reputation, I hope Dominion utterly DESTROYS FOX and everyone connected to it. Nothing but dust in the wind, baby.

If it was me, that's what I would do. I would not stop until they were gone. I wouldn't accept apologies or a settlement. Fuck that shit. I would want to turn the motherfucking utilities off myself.

They may end up running that disclaimer, r270. Legally, they may have to after this or risk getting hit by more lawsuits.

Too many of their idiotic viewers think these “opinion shows” are the actual FACTS.

[quote]each show would have to open with a disclaimer that the program was NOT news, just opinion, and the views expressed are the views solely of the hosts and guests. And the disclaimer has to run at the beginning of every segment.

You're assuming their idiot viewers A) Read and B) Care.

They tune in to hear what they want to hear and nothing more.

I’m surprised Fox News doesn’t have a slogan like “We’re Fox, with all the news you want to hear.”

Thier new logo - FOX "NEWS" ***

*stories are not actually news and just right wing talking points *may or may not be true *we make it up as we go along.

A large percentage of their viewership will take any meme, shoddy website, TikTok or YouTube video as fact as long as it bolsters their ignorant assumptions, so my only shock is the amount of effort --paltry and ridiculous as it is-- that the FOX network puts forth.

My advice to them is: Just put on a literal puppet show, guys. Draw your graphics with crayons. Your audience isn't going to care or stop believing your bullshit.

If anybody thinks the fall of Fox News would be significant, just remember all the years we hoped that Rush Limbaugh would go away. He did. To no effect.

r278 oh yes something will take it's place, probably newsmax but that is not the point. This will stop the next Fox "News" from lying and spreading GOP talking points.

Rupert Murdoch admits that Fox News hosts spread election lies

Who's Rupert Murdoch? Didn't he kill his wife and son? Ain't he a liberal commie? What does he know about my president Trump? NOTHING! He's probably friends with Bill Gates and Jeffrey Epstein! I do my own research and I know that my president Trump won 2020, and had his victory stolen from him by Killery, Hunter and his giant penis, and old Sleepy Joe!

BREAKING: Rupert Murdoch and Fox colluded with Jared Kushner and the Trump campaign and provided Kushner with access to "Fox confidential information about Biden's ads, along with debate strategy" and gave Kushner a preview of Biden's ads before they were public. This comes from the latest filing in the $1.6 billion defamation suit brought by Dominion against Fox

Fuck Jared

If anyone from Dominion is reading this - PLEASE don't settle! This country needs to see these effing lying cunt scumbags on trial. Carlson, Hannity, Piro, Ingraham - not just their viewers, their children need to see them on the stand, forced to tell the truth.

I think it'd be more important than seeing Trump on trial because these guys were his architects, his puppet-masters.

Sean Hannity - did you lie to millions of people? YES

Tucker Carlson - Did you ever believe the election was fraud NO

Laura Ingraham - Did you really believe the injured Capitol Police officers were crisis actors worthy of your laughter? Yes - because I'm a fucking cunt! (I'm going a little too far, but you get my point).

R289 With that tweet I am now upgrading to Salted Caramel popcorn. This is delicious. Can Murdoch be sued for collusion during an election. Please tell me yes

I just don’t understand how these people can live with themselves.

I suppose treason charges are impossible. Any insights about what it takes to have people stripped of their citizenship?

R291. Absolutely right.

Dominion could take a settlement and walk.

Or they could utterly destroy Fox and send a message to the alt-right newsphere that election conspiracy theories - especially about Dominion's voting machines - are not going to fly.

For Dominion it's about the company's, the product's, the service's reputation. Dominion can't settle with Rupert and Fox News or else the company keeps getting attacked by right wing media outlets, and their viewers, for not delivering the right voting results.

The integrity of the voting results is probably the very last thing between compliance and civil unrest. I mean, 01/06/2021 happened, because the Deplorables decided that Trump's blatant lies give them an excuse to ignore the facts and get violent. If enough people don't believe in the election process, shit's going down.

Those Fox commentators sure felt titillation having Sidney Powell and Mike Lindell in their mist.

What kind of hanky-panky was going on there?

Fox headquarters must have been a den of ill repute.

Rick Wilson:

The question the Fox audience should but won't ask is, "What else is behind the curtain? What else is a lie? What else do they say about us off-camera.

Here's your answer: it's all a lie. The entire thing is a big, dumb, loud performance piece.

They're lying about Ukraine. About Biden (at scale). About all the catalog of imaginary culture war demons. ("TONIGHT ON TUCKER: Will Transtifa Terrorist Drag Queens FORCE your kids into Gay Sharia Marriage Veganism?")

This is Rupert and Roger's model at its end state, a seething, metastasizing cancer consuming the minds of millions of Americans convinced by the cynical playhouse of a network of liars, arsonists, and enablers.

What needs to happen is some backlash from ADVERTISERS. They need to be constantly reminded of their association with this crap.

Who advertises there other than Mike the Pillow Guy?

Quite a few corporations, r306

r306 Do you think they'd be profitable with him as the sole advertiser?

Advertisers only care about ratings. Unless people boycott products in a large enough media event they won't stop spending money at fox.

No--advertisers also care about their products being associated with socially unacceptable content. Hardcore sex would get huge ratings, but do you think Procter & Gamble would advertise that kind of content? No -- on "marginal' channels, you only see ads for similarly sleazy products.

R308, that was more of a rhetorical question. More along the lines of figuring out what companies advertise there, like r307 provided.

R228, the LBJ quote needs to be stated every time someone tries to tell MAGAts they're being lied to. They need to understand that MAGAts KNOW they're being lied to by their own and they don't give a fuck as long as they are being spoon-fed hate for the "other." The LBJ quote is brilliant because it is precisely who these people have always been. Does Rick Wilson really think the FOX viewers don't know they're lied to?

Donald Trump is lying swine and his MAGAts know it and he would rather be at an Oscars party with the Hollywood LIBERAL elite than be anywhere near the absolute trash who worship him. They know it. They know Trump has less than nothing in common with them, but he talks like racist trash and that's all the MAGAts require of the elites they worship. Shit on people who aren't them. "Take my money, give it to the wealthy. But please, Tucker, tell us how we're being invaded so I feel like a victim! Tell us how WE alone made America great and it's being taken from us!"

There should be protests at every FOX affiliate in the country. Remember the "CNN Tea Party Express"? CNN followed groups of (Koch Bro. funded) rallies in every city. "Just regular Americans" who are fed up with "big government and out of control spending" "The deficit is OUT OF CONTROL"

There’s a smart, very greedy lawyer out there who will bring a class action lawsuit against Fux for contributing to death of several thousand relatives of non-Fux viewers.

Once Dominion AND smartec (I believe that’s the other voting machine company suing Fux) win BIGLY, the class action suits will start.

OANN and Newsmax are also being sued by Dominion for the same lies.

The FCC doesn’t control satellite or cable stations. Those are unregulated which is why HBO can show tits and ass in their shows.

How has Sidney Powell and John Eastman not yet been disbarred?

Frankly, Bill Barr should be disbarred for how he used the DOJ.

R312 - they don’t believe in lies, they believe in messiahs and what they say. Messiahs only tell truths to them.

Rupert Murdoch, the owner of Fox News, has admitted under oath that many hosts on his network “endorsed” Donald Trump’s false claims about the 2020 election. In a deposition as part of a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion Voting Systems against Fox, he suggested it was done for financial, not political reasons.

Dominion did not ask for enough money. Fifty BILLION.

[quote]Does Rick Wilson really think the FOX viewers don't know they're lied to?

I know some FOX viewers very well, and no, they don't know they're being lied to. You are seriously underestimating the stupidity and gullibility of a wide swath of the American people.

[quote]he suggested it was done for financial, not political reasons.

Oh, well that makes it all ok, then.

That’s why I want to know, R321, if advertisers are okay with endorsing what Fux does. This is beyond entertainment and into a form of thought control without even a care for the outcome. I drive a Lincoln, and knowing they support Fux with advertising dollars kind of makes me want to get rid of it, now. I know - Mary - but whatever. People need to have principles. Fux has sown so much chaos over the years.

Agree with R323. Many do not know. How could they, FOX doesn't admit they're craven liars or that Trump is a craven liar. They baselessly accuse everyone else of lying, though, and gin up outrage over dumbass shit like gas stoves and M&Ms to distract from reality.

MAGAts get their news from these cretins and from the curated, manipulated algorithms of TikTok and YouTube. They take the slimey, grifting mutterings of Dan Biongo, Steve Bannon, and Joe Rogan for fact.

And they’ll just believe that all this coming out about FauxNews is, you guessed it, lies from the left-wing lamestream media.

I think of the Golda Meir line about there being peace in the Middle East when Arab leaders loved their people more than they hated Jews when I think of the Fox News audience.

Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of Fox Corporation, replied in an email to former House Speaker and Fox Corp. board member Paul Ryan that veteran host Sean Hannity “has been privately disgusted by Trump for weeks, but was scared to lose viewers.” The exchange regarded Trump’s spreading of election lies following his November 2020 defeat to Joe Biden.

Hannity is a big, old pussy.

And Trump grabbed it.

The proper moniker is “Pussy Ass BITCH”, r330. For the Congressional Record.

R322, I believe the $1.2 billion is the floor. Dominion is asking for punitive damages so the total amount could be astronomical. And I hope it is.

But Hannity, Ingraham, and Cucker Tarlson were just following orders!

The Fox News viewers don't want the truth, they want to hear what they believe is true.

Apparently tanning his balls affected Tucker's brain

So I decided to see how my conservatives friends and family (mostly family) were handling the Dominion reveals. In a very non aggressive way, I texted each (8 in total) asking them how they felt about Fox lying to them about the election.

Six ignored my text. Two responded with something like "haven't done a deep dive on the story yet".

So. Yeah. Exactly as I suspected.

Well, I'm sure one they "do their own research", on TikTok or YouTube that Dan Biongo, Joe Rogan, or some yelling rando will tell them it's all a commie swamp hoax, R336.

That's why Fox did it as well - because viewers were leaving them for OAN, Newsmax and other places that would tell them what they wanted to hear.

Murdoch takes the stand

I do wonder if it's worth it to tell your soul and become an attorney for FOX, because the pay is really sweet. Viet Dinh, a Republican who worked in the Dubya admin is head of FOX legal. He got himself a $20M place in Brentwood a few years ago:

Blood money flows freely

Fox News is a right-wing propaganda, mass manipulation tool. Its main purpose is to fuck with people's mind. The 1% gets billions of US Dollars in handouts by the GOP, and Fox News tells the public to go after minorities, lazy workers and unions. The drama about advertisers, settlements, and court ordered payments is all bullshit. Even if it would lose money, as long as the GOP and the 1% keep the public from going after the 1% and the media outlet provides the public with plenty of distractions and scapegoats, it will remain on air.

It's the public who has to hold guys like Rupert Murdoch accountable, because neither the media nor the courts will do so.

Ugh, it's horrible just to see how hideous Lachlan is behind the scenes.

He's going to be unbearable once Rupert finally kick's the bucket. I hope others at Fox push him out.

[quote]Fox News is a right-wing propaganda, mass manipulation tool. Its main purpose is to fuck with people's mind.

I think these Dominion filings show that its main purpose is to make money, like any other corporation. It's just determined that it can make the most money by encouraging the paranoid delusions of its audience.

Tucker wanted a reporter fired not because she told the truth about the election, but because he was afraid the truth would hurt the FOX stock price and his pay package.

[quote]once Rupert finally kick's the bucket.

Oh, dear!

Here’s a thought experiment. Imagine a current-day MSNBC covering the OJ Simpson trial. With its (much-warranted) sensitivity to the concerns of Black people, would their coverage have been as one-sided (weighted heavily in favor of the prosecution) as the rest of the media, or, in recognition of their audience, been more even-handed, if not more sympathetic to the defendant?

R346 I can accept Fox or MSNBC will slant news. It's not want I like, but I can accept that because I can see right through it. So can most of us. So I could see MSNBC slanting OJ coverage slightly in his favor. Though his fame and wealth might askew his blackness.

But what I could not accept from MSNBC or any news outlet is outright lies.

So if MSNBC refused to cover the OJ trial? Or flat out said OJ didn't do it even after they knew he did?

Then I'd never watch MSNBC again.

[quote]might askew his blackness.

Oh, dear!

Yes, R346, there are significant differences in the two scenarios, not the least being that Fox was effectively promoting an insurrection. But as to the point that both channels know who their audience is & tailor their content accordingly, there can be no doubt. And even as a devout MSNBC consumer, I’m acutely aware of the need to search out other views.

Yeah, there's a big difference between reporting what you know to be lies and reporting with a bias / interpretation.

R346, that scenario bears absolutely no resemblance to the FOX/Dominion case. FOX knowingly lied. It deliberately and repeatedly misled its viewers about extremely important matters.

FOX's years of lies about the integrity of our elections have eroded the very principles upon which the union of our nation is based. It has stolen domestic terrorism. There is no comparison, re: OJ.

NONE.

Like the actual real evidence of mass Biden family corruption and extortion you mean r89?? Like that?

R33 You're going to be busy "oh dearing" on this thread.

R89 "any seasoned Can Man knows"

Jesus Christ, why don't you just glance at what you've written before actually posting it?

For you MSNBC posters upthread, Chris Hayes summed it up pretty well last night....

It really is getting tiresome with some trying to pull the bullshit of comparisons with other networks (even in cases of hypotheticals).

No network that calls itself "news" has ever in the history of American journalism/media, caused the level of damage that FOX has. That doesn't mean the rest of the media hasn't caused damage, because it certainly has with the Iraq war being the most egregious example by carrying the water of neocons and giving a platform to their lies, along with most coverage of anything related to foreign policy. American media as a whole is just garbage when it comes to covering certain conflicts, but FOX stands alone in its overall toxicity.

The stupidity, narcissism, hypocrisy and arrogance of the average FOX viewer thinking other media outlets are "liberal." Why? Because they aren't outright telling you how great and perfect you are simply for being white and that all of your problems are due to "invading brown immigrants" or "ANTIFA" or "BLM"? Is that what constitutes "liberal media"? Not playing into your hate/fear? The idea that they aren't screaming about Hunter Biden 24/7 as you ignore the blatant corruption of the entire fucking Trump family from the moment they got here from Germany? Or the fact that you scream about how evil the FBI is, meanwhile, the very reason they went after "Hillary's emails" is because deplorable FBI shits in the NY office put pressure on Comey to make it bigger than it was. Meanwhile, they ignore that feckless cunt Ivanka and Jared and countless other Trump admin. officials doing far worse with their private servers, but the FOX losers ignore that, don't they?

FOX viewers want to ignore the mass murdering rapist on their side to make the story of the jaywalker, the worst crime in history -- that's the entire point of being a FOX viewer. Magnify perceived "liberal" nonsense to hysterical proportions so that it poses the greatest threat to the freedumbz of "God fearin' white Christians." And if you don't play into that nonsense, you're "liberal media."

Every once in a while a post comes along with is worth more spotlight than just pressing the

Whoops. Hit post before I finished.

Every once in a while a post comes along with is worth more spotlight than just pressing the WW button. r357's post is one of those.

*standing ovation*

Of course, there is no valid comparison between Fox & MSNBC, but that is not to say that Fox is unique in shaping their news content. MSNBC, like Fox, is a business enterprise that seeks to give its audience the red meat it craves.

^I religiously watch Nicolle Wallace, but I cannot help but note that, although a longtime Republican operative, she never lets her Republican slip show. Is it credible that this fully formed adult has discarded all the principles that made her a republican?

R361, I assume that when Nichole Wallace signed up to be a Republican the “principles” involved were lowering tax rates and opposing Russia. She likely still has those views, but now the party is all about suppressing democracy, both here and abroad.

That’s a pretty spare interpretation of the pre-MAGA GOP, R362.

[quote] Like the actual real evidence of mass Biden family corruption and extortion you mean [R89]?? Like that?

Someone’s been believing the nazi propaganda again

Nicolle Wallace is no longer a Republican. She's now an Independent.

We're a constitutional republic r362.

[quote]We're a constitutional republic [R362].

Well, the Republicans sure as hell don't believe in the constitution either at this point.

A "constitutional republic" means that elected officials govern on behalf of the voters, which is also what happens in self-described democracies. It's not a distinction with a telling difference.

I wonder what we'll find out about their treasonous lies when Smartmatic goes up to bat against ol' FUX?

That is, if there's anything left of it after Dominion gets done fucking it in all of its holes and leaving it behind, crying on the floor like a little bitch.

I have always said it about Fox. They are not a news channel they are a channel were crack pots go "god damn I was right."

^Barack Obama never got it more right than when he said Fox was a political campaign, not a news organization.

Shasta County, in the heart of red California, terminated its contract with Dominion, citing the unfounded claims that the systems allowed voter fraud.

This should provide more ammunition for Dominion's lawyers.

This fucking cunt never learns:

@RonFilipkowski Tucker puts down his dog whistle and picks up his bullhorn: “Merrick Garland has presided over the most aggressive attack .. on traditional christianity than any living American has seen.”

Every on-air person who works at Faux News has ZERO shame. If it meant them keeping their million+ a year jobs. they would literally kill their own family members and even their pets.

These vile human beings, I use the term lightly, have no empathy or concern for anyone. All they care about are their huge salaries.

I love that Laura Ingraham's brother Curtis regularly savages her and Fox on his Twitter account. He's merciless calling out his sister's lies and lack of principle.

He's also gay.

Then ol’ Cucker gets all butt hurt when someone confronts his bullshit in public, R374.

“ How DARE you confront me for my lies and bullshit?”

Also, I believe SCROTUS just ruled that the cops hurt during the terrorist attacking on J6 can now sue Fat Traitor for damages, it also opens up Fux to get sued by them on the same principle.

Fux’s lies have gotten people killed and hurt and they should be held criminally accountable.

Cucker needs to be sued into oblivion and sent off to Siberia with his master Putin.

[quote]Also, I believe SCROTUS just ruled that the cops hurt during the terrorist attacking on J6 can now sue Fat Traitor for damages, it also opens up Fux to get sued by them on the same principle.

One has nothing to do with the other. If they wanted to sue Fux, they could have. The issue recently decided was whether Klangerine could be sued since at the time of the alleged tort, he was the president. He can be sued.

But Fux could've been sued all along. They did need to wait for this decision for that.

"Klangerine"

🤣

I hope that channel, it's owners, and everyone who works for it are viciously and publicly humiliated for what they have done to our country.

If they were capable of feeling humiliation, they wouldn't be working at Fox in the first place, R380.

Remind yourselves where all of these heroes of the troglodytes who watch them and tell them how the "elites" "liberals" "immigrants" are out to get them, choose to live and where they work. None of these fuckers lives in Indiana or Kentucky. Anyone who has been around where Newscorp is located, would find it laughable when they attack immigrants and elites. There are fucking halal carts around that area. I'm sure a few of the producers have gotten kebob wraps for lunch right before they go help work on a story about "creeping sharia."

[quote] it's owners,

Oh, dear!

Most of those assholes would retch at the very idea of having to be around those fine patriotic Americans whose views they claim to represent. Of course, all of them live in evil bastions of wokeism, such as NY or CT.

And DC, R384...no "elites" there.

[quote]I hope that channel, it's owners, and everyone who works for it are viciously and publicly humiliated for what they have done to our country.

In case you haven't noticed, the concept of "shame" has almost completely disappeared from American culture.

Not sure that I buy into the possibility that Fox will incur in any serious consequences. The order of the day is impunity to the right. Everyone is freightened that punishing Trump or Fox will induce their terrorist followers into doing something horrible.

[quote]Everyone is freightened

They're what, now?

Maybe if everyone were freightened, that would certainly help the supply chain issues we’ve been having.

No more use of "News" for that fucking network that might as well claim Hunter Biden is "batboy."

Good God, how stupid must you be to watch that shit after the revelation R70 mentions?

Yes from now on it shall be referred to as Faux Noose.

It just gets better and better. 🍿

The Tucker texts about Trump are delicious!

Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan Tucker on Trump in a text on Jan 4th, 2021: “I hate him passionately.”

Tucker on July 31st, 2022:

This is the level of fucking stupid we're talking about among the right trash. You read this and cannot believe we live among such troglodytes. Why the fuck would FOX ever respect them? :

A nice result of this lawsuit would be if the network would be stripped from calling itself Fox “News” going forward.

No more witch hunts. But a Fox hunt sure sounds good. And what those foxes have been doing is worse than any shit in a commode.

It’s obvious they don’t, R395. They just love their money.

[quote]A nice result of this lawsuit would be if the network would be stripped from calling itself Fox “News” going forward.

Wouldn't cause a single viewer to abandon them.

Agree with R399. They watch to be enraged and entertained, not for facts. That's why so many are against "fact checkers"/ fact checking by professionals or scientific experts and prefer to "do their own research". They want what they pretend is real news to back up what they already believe.

It's why they don't care that they're being lied to by FOX. Many know that they are, they just don't care. If they allowed themselves to care, they'd have to admit they were wrong about too many things for their egos to handle.

It's easier to pretend, and stay enraged and entertained.

Fox News anchor Maria Bartiromo and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon exchanged written messages in the days after the 2020 election in which they conspired to discredit President-elect Joe Biden. Bannon also suggested Bartiromo should consider running for Senate in New York against Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer.

“1. We either close on Trumps victory or delegitimize Biden 2. Win both seats in Georgia 3. Win back house in 2022 4. Elect u to the senate 5. IF we don’t close on Trump victory now have trump declare for 2024 the day after taking back House and your win in Nov 2022.”

It's amazing when you see some of the responses in r397's linked tweets.

It's all in the vein of "he never said that."

We really are seeing the depths of stupidity in this country.

Copium.

[quote]Bartiromo should consider running for Senate in New York against Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer.

I loathe Schumer with a passion and have said I'd rather not vote than vote for him, but if that gindaloon from my old neighbor runs, it would be the one time I would make an exception and vote for him.

R402, that's how it works. I never NOT heard you say you didn't kill your best friend, so I'm going to have to assume you killed your best friend. Didn't you know you have to actually hear every single thing a person has ever said in their entire life to believe it's true?

What makes them even stupider than usual is that they're ignoring this was in the *court filings* not some "liberal propaganda." This is during legal proceedings.

They believe court filings are anything anyone wants to submit, r405.

I’ve mentioned “toucan look up the court documents on line and see for yourself what they emailed and texted each other” but my idiot ammosexual brother thinks anyone can stick anything they want in a court document.

They have ZERO concept of facts, laws or reality.

*YOU can.

Ugh

I feel ya, R406/ 407. My QAnon uncle believes, posts, and forwards airbrushed memes, randos on TikTok, and deep fake videos as "proof" of the craziest shit you've ever seen or heard. He "does his own research" like a lot of these sad loons.

[quote]I’ve mentioned “toucan

Thank you. It's been a while since I've been remembered.

R410 - they were going to denounce Dump the day before the riot, but I wonder how many knew of “the plan” and to what extent? And why did they so quickly change their tune and call it a friendly tour? To the point that Fuckehead Carlson is - to this day - saying the riot was misrepresented by the Democrats?

I will never understand how they can claim anything we saw with our own fucking Orphan Annie's is "misrepresented."

People died, FFS!

[quote]My QAnon uncle believes, posts, and forwards airbrushed memes, randos on TikTok, and deep fake videos as "proof" of the craziest shit you've ever seen or heard. He "does his own research" like a lot of these sad loons.

This is true. My mother (not QAnon) had a friend who would forward her the craziest batshit email "proofs" of things. One of the most ridiculous ones was that Obama had invented a White House job for Michelle's mother Marian and was paying her in the high six figures.

Eventually my mother's friend went blind and couldn't use the computer, so — well, not a happy ending, but it put a stop to the nonsense.

[quote]Eventually my mother's friend went blind and couldn't use the computer

Sounds like she was blind before she actually lost her eyesight.

Well, R413, according to MY mother told us, that old lady probably went blind from watching too much porn on the Internet.

95 year old grifter. Depressing.

"Dominion's just-released reply brief in its $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit seeking summary judgment starts with a single-word sentence:

"Finally.""

"That concession is no small thing. Thirty percent or more of Americans still believe the lie that the 2020 election was stolen."

Dominion says their employees still get threats and harassment."

"Fox's reply:

"Dominion litters its opposition brief with cherry-picked statements from people who have nothing to do with the specific statements it challenges as defamatory," which "might make for interesting headlines" but doesn't create a "triable issue of fact.""

This needs to keep going until we find out about the redacted portions.

Yeah, they should be juicy.

I really don't need to know about Tucker's pervy fetishes. I already feel like I need a Silkwood shower.

All of this comes out about fox news and the only thing democrats can do is joke about it.

Louis DeJoy still has his job. Trump and all the republicans behind January 6th still walk free.

Biden decided on day 1 that, America just need to put this all behind them.

"Biden decided on day 1 that, America just need to put this all behind them."

No, he didn't, that's why he didn't pardon Trump

Biden didn't decide that at all, Bernista. Nothing he's said or done implies or supports that.

[quote]R424: No, he didn't, that's why he didn't pardon Trump

No need to 'pardon Trump,' since even now, Trump hasn't so much as been charged. Something is wrong.

[quote]R425: Biden didn't decide that ["Biden decided on day 1 that, America just need to put this all behind them"] at all, Bernista. Nothing he's said or done implies or supports that.

Putting it all behind them in favor of unity was the overarching message of his 2021 inauguration speech. See the link below.

And in terms of 'done,' neither Trump nor any of his partners in crime (including Congresspersons) have been charged or convicted. We're ⅔ of the way thru Biden's term, and there's not much time left in which to do something concrete about Trump. Letting it pass would be as much a fatal mistake as the one Obama made in the last weeks before the 2016 election, knowing what he knew about Russia's direct interference, but saying nothing.

Fox News anchor Maria Bartiromo is front and center in Dominion’s defamation suit

^ There are rumors floating that Boobies McPuffylips will be one of the sacrificial lambs to lose her show.

Maria Bartiromo: Dumb as a bag of rocks.

The irony about Maria: from the transcripts, it looks like she might have genuinely believed the lie. She was the one host telling the "truth", (at least as she thought it).

Not to say she isn't a cunt. She's a cunt!

Maria is Fox’s best defense.

R431, she comes from my neighborhood. I'm not surprised in the least she really believes it. The Catholic girls school she went to, built something like a media center and it's named after her. I wonder if the girls will eventually protest having it named for such filth.

I want to know the identity of the woman who supposedly sent the self-admitted "wackadoodle" email to Sidney Powell, which she then passed on to Maria Bartiromo - the one who claimed to be a time traveler who was "internally decapitated." "The Wind tells me I'm a ghost, but I don't believe it." Etc.

I read some of Bartiromo's texts to Bannon and she does sound like a true believer. When did she undergo the transformation? Or was she always this way

I just remember one of those nutso interviews Bartiromo did with Dump early in his term--he was going on and on about nonsense like submarines going under the water--she was all gaga and like "tell me more about that, President Trump." She is a true believer.

Although I'm not sure why people think she was some kind of great journalist to begin with--she had big tits and could read stock quotes off a teleprompter, that was about all she had going for her.

R434 I believe the wackadoodle was identified in at least one of the MSNBC shows. I think it might have been Alex Wagner. Too tired to look it up.

One shit storm after another and the real, grifting, lying, treasonous players don't pay.

Tucker Carlson still bloviating, with new lies for the shit for brains. Who he hates as well.

Has Maria always had the face of someone who stuck her face into a wasp's nest?

Except for Hillary's emails, they are the gospel truth. Oh and Chinese propaganda newspapers which are entered into Record in Congress. Those are real. Just not emails and texts from Fox "Noose" hosts.

Meet the "the wind tells me I'm a ghost" lady

Fuck yourself r427. How obvious can you be?

Your side has managed to create an atmosphere of such vile, power-loving political leaders to the point that our President *could not* at that early stage publicly verify that Russia interfered. If he had done that before a fucking ELECTION, they would’ve accused him of election interference and they would have had Obama charged if he did that. We would have seen even bigger violence than 1/6.

And then after the election was over, he couldn’t say sitting right then because Obama’s job was to set up the next President to win. And again, had he publicly stated that Russia interfered in the first weeks/months after the election, it would have rip-off our country apart. Obama had to discern the potential for violence because clearly, the GOP looooooooves violence.

The ONLY thing that could have worked was if Obama announce it *and* the GOP leadership all cooperated and showed trust in our investigative agencies and in Obama as a leader. And guess what? They will never put country over party. They have never done the right thing, fuck, look at what they’re saying right now about 1/6 on FoxNews!!!

So, like I said, fuck yourself r427. GTFOH throwing Obama under the bus when the real problem was the GOP, particularly in the House. You’re a POS because you refuse to tell the whole truth. I don’t respect liars.

[quote]R445: How obvious can you be?

About what? Stating the facts? Obama knew the Russians were interfering.

[quote]Your side has managed to create an atmosphere of such vile, power-loving political leaders to the point that our President *could not* at that early stage publicly verify that Russia interfered.

'𝑀𝑦 𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒'? My side has always been the Democrats. But I'm pretty sure you're already aware of that, and are using a sock to go on a screaming tear.

[quote] And again, had he publicly stated that Russia interfered in the first weeks/months after the election, it would have rip-off our country apart. Obama had to discern the potential for violence because clearly, the GOP looooooooves violence.

Since that point, violence has resulted anyway. It hadn't before, and wasn't something that could have been anticipated then. Exposing Trump's Russian connections would not have resulted in the kind of violence his followers have performed since he became entrenched as president, and afterwards.

R445, you're screaming as though I defended the GOP, something I have never done. It was a judgement call on Obama's part, and given what happened as a result of the Trump presidency, the wrong one. The election was already being interfered with by both the Russians, the GOP, and by Comey. It could not have been any further loss to tell the truth.

[quote]You’re a POS because you refuse to tell the whole truth. I don’t respect liars.

Sock-puppeting and whataboutism are dishonest. And the only one who has lied here has been you, Matt.

Tucker should win an Oscar on Sunday

R446, your lies are based upon “context”. You are trying to make it look at though Obama was derelict in his duty, and what I’m telling you is that if the Conservatives were actually true fucking patriots, they would have linked arms with Obama to tackle this problem together. Obama had to keep the peace and faith in our system because he knew he would have no backup in Congress, he was cornered at that specific moment in time. So the Rethugs refused to publicly back up Obama on Russian interference…..And yet, you conveniently ignore that in your reply. Tell me, what do you think the GOP would have done *exactly* if Obama had announced it? How would they respond? And then, how would the rest of the country respond while being told their new GOP President isn’t the “real” President, told by his competitor, a person who happens to be a black man in America?

I am not saying I’m happy with how it played out. But to throw Obama to the wolves without ONCE mentioning the dereliction of the GOP? That’s just disingenuous. If you don’t name all the players, then you’re blatantly leaving out key facts, and I call that bullshite.

[quote]R448: You are trying to make it look at though Obama was derelict in his duty.

I never said anything like that. I said he made a judgement call, and it was clearly the wrong one.

[quote] if the Conservatives were actually true fucking patriots, they would have linked arms with Obama to tackle this problem together.

Well, they're not, and never were. Many of them were (and are) secretly working with the Russians.

[quote]Obama had to keep the peace and faith in our system because he knew he would have no backup in Congress, he was cornered at that specific moment in time.

No. I do not accept that. He still could have told. It would have changed everything.

Trump wouldn't have been "their new GOP President," since Obama's disclosure of Russian interference and Trump's affiliation with them would have been even more devastating on election results than the Comey letter was. All of the subsequent shit, including Trump's hold on the GOP, would never have happened.

You place way too much focus on the Republicans, and are too much in favor of bowing down to them. And your fixation on Obama's blackness says more about your own priorities than anything else.

Yes, if the MAGAts have shown anything over the last six years, it's their ability to be swayed by evidence and reason.

If Dominion wins its lawsuit, will the indicted or convicted J6 insurrectionists have any case to sue Fox? I've seen this possibility mentioned a couple of times, but is it realistic? They were misled and given false information, but yet they ultimately chose to commit various crimes. Do they have any basis for some sort of class action? They are the types to sue at the mere hint of cash payout.

^ Fortunately, for Fox’s sake, they’ll never know about that.

I'm sure there are enterprising lawyers out there who will clue them in and let them know about Fox's deep pockets, that they were done wrong, that it's unfair Dominion gets so much money and they got left holding the bag, etc. The only thing that will dislodge their noses from Trump's Crack is financial incentive. But do they actually have a legal basis?

Not a lawyer here, r453, but I can’t see why not?

Legally, it maybe possible but it may be too difficult to prove in a court of law? IDK

Isn’t it true that Murdock didn’t really control the operations at Fox? He was nominally the owner but he also had investors, and the real person in charge was some Jewish guy who was at the top when Fox was at its most influential and damaging.

R455, sure, it was George Soros who was secretly running FOX News all the time. That was the problem.

Seriously, wtf? Murdoch owns 39% of FOX. He’s really the boss. The late, notorious Roger Ailes, the former CEO of FOX, was Catholic.

If Fox were to prevail & SCOTUS thereafter makes it easier to sue media organizations, what, other than statute of limitation cocerns, could prevent Dominion from re-filing its civil lawsuit?

According to one expert, Fox has "a fighting chance" to win.

R458, you always have “a fighting chance” with a jury trial.

[quote]R450: Yes, if the MAGAts have shown anything over the last six years, it's their ability to be swayed by evidence and reason.

It's not MAGAts who put him in office, not by a long shot. (That's setting aside that you're appealing to a development that didn't really exist until 𝑎𝑓𝑡𝑒𝑟 he became president.) No, it was caused by swing voters acting on last-minute misinformation like the Comey letter and targeted social media disinformation, who would have truly benefited from the sure knowledge that the Russians were backing Trump, and that he was their asset. The outcome had every chance of being quite different, and Trump would never have achieved the batshit-insane devotion of the MAGAts.

^ And don’t forget the Berniecrats & Black males who sat it out, as well as the Jill Stein voters.

r460 - I disagree. Republicans, all of them, put him in office. Even the ones who hated him. I have plenty of relatives who are Republicans who loathed him but were also "Never Hillary" voters. The DNC and Clinton did not understand how disliked she was. It was her arrogance that did that. Had Biden run against Trump the first time, I am sure he would have won. I heard it over and over, they would have voted for Biden but never Hillary. I voted for Hillary, I thought she was a perfect choice, but too many people see her as a thirsty climber.

R461, who the fuck are you? Harriet Christian?

Don't put anything on non-whites when it comes to Trump. It's all on white people alone that the stupidest, most corrupt pile of orange dogshit became president. No decent humanbeing could ever vote for such an odious buffoon unless there's something bad about them: Being hateful and/or greedy. The people who should've sat it out were the millions upon millions of white assholes who couldn't bare to vote for Hillary or any Democrat, but instead, proactively allowed a disgusting, stupid swine to take office.

"BIG NEWS: A New York court has given the green light to another $2.7 BILLION lawsuit against Fox News by election company Smartmatic over their alleged 2020 presidential election lies. Details:

- This is in additional to the $1.6 BILLION Dominion lawsuit against Fox News - The case is against Fox News, the Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo, the former business anchor Lou Dobbs and Trump’s former lawyer Rudy Giuliani. - The Smartmatic complaint alleges that the “Defendants did not want Biden to win the election. They wanted President Trump to win re-election. They also saw an opportunity to capitalize on President Trump’s popularity by inventing a story.”"

It really should never have gotten this far with FOX. What a toxic mouthpiece for hate and lies. They've done so much damage to so many people. They should've been sued into oblivion years ago.

these numbers are still too low

[quote]Legally, it maybe possible

Oh, dear!

R463- Herman Cain award.

[quote]R461: ^ And don’t forget the Berniecrats & Black males who sat it out, as well as the Jill Stein voters.

Each of those constituencies were the direct targets of specially tailored Russian propaganda on social media: 'If no ethical choice is possible, just don't vote at all'; 'Hillary Clinton/the Democrats have never done anything for Black people; why should we do anything for her/them?' Even so, it was only the tiniest percentages of these groups who were persuaded by the disinformation. Most Blacks and Bernie supporters voted for Hillary.

[quote]R462: I disagree. Republicans, all of them, put him in office.

All of the Republicans combined simply did not have the numbers to put him anywhere. They were and remain a minority in the US. The only way they can win is by the lack of Democrat votes, whether by voter suppression / invalidation, by the Democratic vote being split, or by non-participation.

Disturbing

A Fox News producer says she was coerced into giving false testimony

Archived link to the NYT article:

Lachlan Murdoch’s apparatus gives the public daily Lindsey G.

Plenty of MAGA men become stimulated.

Are you suggesting Lachlan Murdoch’s apparatus stimulates me? Can you go into more detail? Slowly?

[quote]A Fox News producer says she was coerced into giving false testimony

Fuck her. She's an asshole who was fine with spreading lies and now she wants to play a victim? She's as repugnant as those women in TX who vote Republican and when they need an abortion themselves, expect sympathy.

Judge sends Dominion lawsuit against Fox News to trial.

"Judge Eric Davis concluded that Dominion Voting Systems, which makes election equipment, had proven that Fox aired a series of false claims about the company, but that depositions, internal emails and text messages had not established whether Fox acted with “actual malice” by carrying statements on its air that it knew were false or likely so.

The evidence is “CRYSTAL clear that none of the Statements relating to Dominion about the 2020 election are true,” Davis wrote. Fox’s false statements included assertions that the company was controlled by Venezuela and implemented a bizarre algorithm to boost Democrats’ vote count under certain conditions, the judge said."

"Davis has set jury selection for April 13 and the trial to begin in April 17 in Delaware Superior Court in Wilmington, assuming that the sides don’t reach a financial settlement in the meantime."

^^Ha-Ha!

Dominion will not settle. They want everyone to know Fux lies. I hope they fucking drive that old corpse and his sniveling spawn into eternal bankruptcy.

Good riddance to Fux!

Considering all of the death threats Dominion employees have gotten, I hope for them, it goes beyond the money and they expose everything about that shit company. They need to be shunned by the media elites. FOX cares about ratings, but they care more about being in the "inner circle." No credible journalist will want to be anywhere near a FOX propagandist.

For the death threats alone that the employees have and are still facing, FOX News the company ought to be utterly bankrupted and buried.

I agree that Fox should be fucking destroyed by this lawsuit. Not only did they spread lies purposefully, they endangered lives. But they did it for ratings, not malice. I’m worried Dominion won’t be able to prove malice.

I actually would recommend Dominion settle for a boatload of money, and I mean billions. But a requirement to settle is a public statement by Fox admitting to all the lies. And they have to cover it on Fox on every show. For a week.

Disgusting hucksters and frauds

R480 I think they can prove malice. See:

[quote]In 1964 the court issued an opinion in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, 376 U.S. 254 (1964) dramatically changing the nature of libel law in the United States. In that case, the court determined that public officials could win a suit for libel only if they could demonstrate "actual malice" on the part of reporters or publishers. In that case, "actual malice" was defined as "knowledge that the information was false" or that it was published "with reckless disregard of whether it was false or not".

If that precedent holds, I think it's fairly clear that Fox promoted information they knew was false.

R482, agree! Under that definition, Dominion’s case is a slam dunk actually.

R483 I won't say slam dunk because juries are fickle but I think that's why Dominion has refused to settle so far.

What R482. FOX was literally sent thousands of emails by Dominion with corrections in *real time* and FOX ignored every last one of them.

And it's obvious Dominion doesn't want to settle because the CEO is pissed at what he and his employees had to endure from the trash who watch that garbage network. You could tell in his 60 Minutes interview that he was seething inside at the hell they put his people through.

What R482 said*

I wonder if the sticking point in a settlement is that Dominion is insisting that Fox apologize on air and/or brief their viewers on the shady shit they did. If I were them, I would settle if Fox gave them money and an on air apology.

I bet Fox is willing to pull up the Brinks truck but won’t admit to anything to their viewers.

I wonder how much they had to pay for this one they just settled

As Fox Corp. prepares to fight a looming and potentially high-profile defamation case, it has agreed to settle another.

The company, which owns Fox News, has reached a confidential agreement to resolve a defamation case levied against it by Venezuelan businessman Majed Khalil that alleged Fox News and former host Lou Dobbs had harmed Khalil’s reputation by stating he and three others developed programs and machines to rig the 2020 presidential election.

“This matter has been resolved amicably by both sides. We have no further comment,” Fox News said in a statement after being contacted by Variety. A letter filed Saturday to Judge Louis L. Stanton of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York informed authorities that the parties in the case “have reached a confidential agreement to resolve this matter. The parties anticipate filing a joint stipulation of dismissal with prejudice early next week.”

In the case, initially filed in 2021, Khalil alleged that comments made by Dobbs in 2020 on Fox Business Network and on Twitter that suggested he was “COO of the election project” in which officials from Venezuela conspired with voting-technology firms Smartmatic Inc. and Dominion Voting Systems tried to make sure President Donald Trump lost, harmed his reputation. Dobbs also said Khalil was “a liaison with Hezbollah” who “executed an electoral 9-11″ and a “cyber Pearl Harbor” against the United States, according to his initial complaint.

The 2020 presidential election was not rigged, according to multiple officials, but Fox’s Dobbs amplified statements made by Trump aides like Sidney Powell, an attorney for the former president who saw her media profile widen after she rattled off multiple unproven conspiracy theories to reporters covering the race for the White House. President Joe Biden won the election.

A judge ruled in February of last year that Khalil’s case had standing, despite Fox’s efforts to have the case dismissed.

Dobbs’ long-running Fox Business program was cancelled in 2021, after he had been named in the Smartmatic suit.

The settlement comes as Fox Corp. and Fox News are about to face a jury in a trial slated to begin next week in Wilmington, Delaware. In that case, Dominion Voting is seeking $1.6 billion in damages related to what it alleges was Fox News’ repeated circulation of claims that it played a role in swaying the 2020 election for Biden.

At issue in the case are damages Dominion alleges it is owed after Fox News aired false claims about its actions and influence on the 2020 election. It is the second legal proceeding made against Fox News for its coverage of the aftermath of the 2020 race for the White House. Smartmatic, a separate voting technology company, has filed a massive $2.7 billion suit against the company. Both suits allege that Fox News falsely claimed the companies had rigged the election, repeated items about the matter and then refused to engage in efforts to set the record straight. Fox has maintained that it is protected against Dominion’s claims by the First Amendment.

Has Dominion even asked for billions, R480? I thought they sought damages “only” in the amount of $1.6 billion.

R490, if the jury finds FOX guilty they can assess punitive damages, so FOX’s potential exposure goes well beyond the $1.6 billion in actual damages.

"A Fox Corp. shareholder sued Rupert Murdoch, Lachlan Murdoch and several members of the Fox Corp. board of directors in Delaware on Tuesday afternoon, arguing that they violated their fiduciary duty to the company when they allowed Fox News to broadcast election conspiracy theories.

The derivative action — a kind of lawsuit brought by shareholders who believe they’ve been harmed by the corporation — was brought by a single plaintiff, Robert Schwarz."

Dominion does NOT WANT to settle out of court. They want Fux dragged for filth in front of god and everybody.

Why? Settling usually means the parties don’t discuss the case and no one admits fault. Dominion is determined that Fux not only ADMITS fault but that are exposed for the lying filth they are.

I say Dominion burn those morherfucking treasonous pricks right down to the ground, scoop up the debris and let Smartmatic blast that right into the sun.

It’ll be fun to see Fox completely ignore this trial. It’s in state court, so it’s possible that it’ll be televised. So CNN & MSNBC could be airing live trial coverage, while nothing’s seen on Fox.

They can't ignore the outcome, if they're found GUILTY.

Sure they can, R495. Only a settlement-producing requirement that they admit wrongdoing on air would lead to Fox acknowledging reality to its viewers.

They can't ignore a guilty verdict, R496. They can appeal, but a verdict is a verdict, whether they report on it or not. I'm talking $$$$.

Fairly clear that poster was talking about what gets broadcast on Fox News though? Already we've seen other channels cover the case and zip, nada on Fox News.

Right, understood. It would be hilarious if they lose and everyone knows about it but Fox pretends it never happened!

Check the front pages of NY Post! HA!

R498 that’s exactly what I was talking about. I’m feeling very certain that Dominion would settle IF Fox went on air and admitted to their own audience what they did. Fox is not fighting the money, it’s fighting the admission. Even if a trial goes against them, they can remain silent on air, and their minions would never know.

The hits just keep on coming:

[quote]was brought by a single plaintiff, Robert Schwarz."

May the Schwarz be with you!

[quote] IF Fox went on air and admitted to their own audience what they did.

And their ignorant audience would say, "Ahh. Deep State crap. They're only saying that because some liberal judge forced them to say it. It's not true," and nothing changes.

No, FN needs to be drummed completely, totally, and utterly out of business. If your wrongdoing is that egregious it caused that much damage, you cannot maintain as a viable company continuing to spread misinformation and lies.

See: Carlson, Tucker; Interview with Klangerine.

Was this ever linked?

If that at R504 was widely known, MAGAts would want patriot Tucky to be their President Trump's VP pick! They love them some anti-Semitism.

I'm curious: Does Tucker work out of the NY or DC studio? Which elitist city is it?

"A long-awaited defamation case being brought by a voting technology firm against Fox News has been delayed by a day and is now due to start on Tuesday.

Dominion Voting Systems is suing the TV network for $1.6bn, claiming it knowingly spread lies about its voting machines after the 2020 election.

The judge ordering the 24-hour postponement gave no reason but US media report Fox News is seeking to settle the case.

In a statement on Sunday evening, Delaware Superior Court judge Eric Davis said only that he would announce at 9am local time Monday (1400bst) that the start of the trial would be delayed by 24 hours.

Citing two sources with knowledge of the situation, the Washington Post has reported that Fox and Dominion representatives were scheduled to meet on Monday to see if they could come to a last-minute deal before the trial begins."

Fox is trying to settle. I think the only way Dominion will settle is if they admit they lied. Funny how Trump called CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS the Fake News and it turns out Fox is the Fake News.

Trump was fine with all of those networks when they gave him a platform to spread his birther bullshit. Notice Obama didn't go after them for giving Trump that platform to lie? Notice NBC let Trump continue to have his show despite his racist birtherism crap? Those networks are the only reason that fucking dogshit ever became president. They used to cover his rallies live. Free publicity from all of those "fake news" networks. But he then expected them to become his PRAVDA once he became president.

[quote]I'm curious: Does Tucker work out of the NY or DC studio? Which elitist city is it?

He reports from the godless apocalyptic hellscape of NYC.

r509 Not exactly true, Fox News created him. They brought him on daily almost as a political commentator after his first failed presidential run. The Fox News folks got daily meetings with Trump and his opinion of Obama for eight years. They created him.

R511, the networks also brought him on. People like Joe and Mika legitimized him. His claims about "sending investigators to HI and they're finding a lot of things" were never challenged. They just allowed him to lie. And he was the only one whose rallies they'd cover live. I recall that because that's when I just stopped watching.

Even former FOX anchor Gretchen Carlson is begging Dominion not to settle:

"PLEASE Dominion --- Do not settle with Fox! You're about to prove something very big."

[quote]settle. I think the only way Dominion will settle is if they admit they lied.

Like that would make a difference? We already know from the texts that they lied and it made no difference with the troglodytes.

No, it needs to be bankrupted for this egregious situation.

To this day, Dominion gets threats because the flying monkey cultists still believe the absolute garbage they were fed. I hope that CEO looks at his kids and thinks about the threats to his family and also thinks about the employees who went through hell due to FOX and he keeps telling the lawyers that money is not enough and that he wants FOX and it's disgusting mouthpieces to go through hell the way they did. Rupert Murdoch and his fucking shit son need to be put on the stand. I'm tired of the power these evil people have and have just destroyed the way the American govt conducts itself.

If I were Dominion, the settlement would require Fox to have a constant read in big, bold letters at the bottom of the screen stating "THIS IS ENTERTAINMENT, NOT NEWS. NONE OF THIS IS BASED ON REALITY." And an announcement of same would be required before every commercial break/every fifteen minutes at a very audible volume.

its* disgusting moithpieces

fuck it

nuke australia

Their employees, their families, and children may never be safe again because they lied --OVER AND OVER-- to morons and crazy people. There isn't enough money in the fucking world to make up for that shit. Screw settling with them!

Rupert & Lachlan could have stopped the lies. They refused because of their political ideology and the craving of profits. Their dismissal of the truth is not forgivable.

Glad to see Dominion didn't settle and are pressing ahead with the lawsuit.

Great news! The trial is officially underway and 12 jurors have been seated. On the alternate jurors now.

Reports say that it was Fox pushing to settle and Dominion refused. Not just that they don't have a good case Fuxx obviously would also not want the media attention - Tucker, Rupert and co will have to take the stand.

Jury selection is now complete.

This is strange - what are Fox trying for with these exhibits?

"Fox News has just unveiled some of their exhibits for the Dominion trial. They include four separate clips from the Hit TV series, 'The Simpsons'. The four episodes all show Homer Simpson voting in Presidential elections. They are as follows:

"Treehouse of Horror XIX" where Homer Votes for Obama

"Homer Votes 2012" where Homer votes for Mitt Romney.

"Homer Votes 2016" where Putin tries to convince Homer to vote for Donald Trump.

"Treehouse of Horror XXXI" where Homer is indecisive when going to vote for Biden or Trump"

Opening statements will begin after lunch and both sides will take about an hour and a half each to do so. Witnesses won’t be called today, but will be tomorrow.

Tucker is a huge celebrity in Russia. Putin is a fan of his and mentions him all of the time. Gee, I wonder why.

Sounds like a winning strategy for Fox r525!

Will Sidney Powell be testifying?

I don't know (she isn't an employee, she's a guest so probably not?) but this is delicious:

“Sidney Powell is lying, by the way. I caught her. It’s insane,” Carlson wrote in one such message, even as Fox continued to air Powell’s claims about Dominion.

Hard to understand how Fuxx can win this.

R529- if there is a God she will!

R525, but aren’t The Simpsons on a different FOX channel? Maybe they should show clips from the FOX Weather channel, too, I’m sure that’s just as relevant.

Are they televising the trial?

[quote] Will Sidney Powell be testifying?

I'd really like her source to testify.

R533, no, and they absolutely should be.

There is a settlement according to the judge.

Yep.

Boo.

Hope there's loads of provisions in the settlement for T C, S H, L I to apologise on air to Fox viewers loud and often for all their lies.

Not anymore.

$785 mill, what a joke

God damn mother fucking assholes got off easy.

Fucking Dominion, what a bunch of pussies.

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

R542, they were only obligated to act in their own interests, not ours.

To be honest, if this case went to trial there was always the potential for it to set a bad precedent for suits against the news media.

The reason they settled: it's a guarantee of nearly a billion they otherwise would not have gotten if just 1 juror thought it wasn't libel. This was a business decision.

Everyone who isn't a Fox fanatic sees this as Fox admitting it lied.

And Dominioni says it's going after the pillow guy, Guiliani, and Powell.

Newsmax apologized to Dominion as it settled its own lawsuit with Dominian.

[quote]And Dominioni says it's going after the pillow guy, Guiliani, and Powell.

Let's hope we hear about it.

Meanwhile, the idiots spewing the shit on the channel got off scot-free.

Plus there’s that other company, suing them, for even more money.

Smartmatic.

Excuse me? they state they are infotainment, not news

[quote]Everyone who isn't a Fox fanatic sees this as Fox admitting it lied.

Which is only further confirmation as to how idiotic and brain-washed you have to be to watch that garbage network. On what planet does any company or person accused of wrongdoing, hands over almost a billions dollars if they're innocent?

hand*

Ha, Dominion accepts a $75 million settlement from Fox. Fox is happy so all the dirt doesn't come out.

Sorry. $700 million

R552. you must not have seen the statement from the Smartmatic attorneys:

“Dominion’s litigation revealed some of the misconduct and damage caused by caused by Fox News disinformation campaign Smartmatic will reveal the rest”
