BigRedBuster Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 It sure seems like these lawyers were looking for nothing but $$$. And....maybe that's all their clients really wanted...so, they did their jobs. Hopefully, the other lawsuits causes even a lot more pain for Fox, OAN, Newsmax...etc. Link to comment

All the major/best evidence has already been released, and the court can't compel Fox to issue an apology. Going to trial doesn't really accomplish anything. Link to comment

I believe there was a network that was sued and was forced to admit wrong doing on air. So, I think you're wrong there. Fox reported a net income last quarter of $321 million. So, in two quarters, they easily make the money to pay the settlement. Yes, that hurts. But, it doesn't give long term damage and I would be very surprised if any of the network celebrities lose their jobs. The one thing that is satisfying is that so much evidence has been discovered and released. Hopefully, the other lawsuits accomplish what people are looking for. Link to comment
