‘Not over’: Dominion lawyer says Fox is just the beginning — and others spreading election ‘lies’ will pay up

Fox News managed on Tuesday to secure a settlement with Dominion Voting Systems in the lawsuit against their promotion of election conspiracy theories, paying out $787 million to resolve the dispute and sparing themselves the spectacle of having their top personalities and executives admit on the stand they knew the network’s claims were false.

But Fox News is only the beginning, said Dominion’s lead counsel Justin Nelson to a CNN panel on Tuesday: they are going to go after several other people who promoted the same false claims and damaged their reputation.

“What this settlement today shows is that the actual malice standard isn’t just on paper … journalists can’t knowingly lie,” said Nelson. “Journalists can’t say one thing in private and another thing in public. And when we have that protection and that knowledge that in fact, there is the protection of the actual malice standard, and that is from the First Amendment. We can be assured that journalists will go ahead and report the truth and will do so with the full freedom the First Amendment allows.”

“Your team had mentioned earlier that this is sort of the first step,” said correspondent Sarah Sidner. “What happens next for Dominion? What does this mean for other lawsuits against other networks that were promoting false theories about the 2020 election?”

“That’s a great question,” said Nelson. “This is one of seven lawsuits. This one settled today. There are six left. And I think it sends a message to the other six lawsuits that accountability is coming as well. It’s not over. We have lawsuits against Newsmax, against One America News, against Sidney Powell, against Rudolph Giuliani and Mike Lindell and MyPillow and Patrick Byrne. And many of them are still propagating these lies about the election, and they are still having an effect.”

“So we intend to hold people accountable because, as we have said, the truth really does matter and if you are lying, that has consequences,” Nelson added. “It had a consequence for Dominion in the … grievous blow to the reputation that it had over the past couple of years and the threats the death threats that the company really continues to receive, and it had a consequence for Fox. Today they paid nearly three quarters of a billion dollars.”

‘I never said move on!’ Charlie Kirk backtracks after caving to Trump on Epstein



MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk sought to calm his audience after initially saying he was "done talking" about President Donald Trump's Jeffrey Epstein controversy.

On his Tuesday podcast, Kirk noted that media outlets — including Raw Story — had reported on his attempt to avoid discussing the Trump administration's decision not to release additional files from the Epstein case. On Monday, Kirk said that he wanted to discuss other topics after reportedly receiving a call from Trump.

"This is a total obsessive hoax," Kirk said of the media coverage on Tuesday. "And even some people were emailing me, Charlie, why are you not talking about Epstein? Why are you saying to move on? I never, ever, ever said move on, ever!"

"I didn't whisper it. I didn't think it. I didn't say it," he continued. "But let me say this again. You know my opinion about Epstein. The messaging fumble."

But on Monday, he said, "Honestly, I'm done talking about Epstein for the time being. I'm gonna trust my friends in the administration, I'm gonna trust my friends in the government to do what needs to be done, solve it, ball's in their hands."

Kirk said he was making "an addendum to what was said yesterday."

"We're going to keep on talking about it," he insisted. "You see, but what's so disappointing, not disappointing, to an extent I get it, is that the MAGA base is so fired up about this. And that's why I didn't take a lot of this seriously. Is that, you know, people were incoming, Charlie, why are you moving on? No one's saying that!"

"And of course, I don't trust the deep state," he added. "I trust people that I have known for years... And if there's one thing I've learned from you guys in the grassroots in this audience, you are not letting this story go."
