    “The details of the settlement were not disclosed in the filing”

    That’s too bad, but understandable considering there are other related lawsuits still going on. I’d love to know if it’s going to bankrupt OANN, and/or if they have to run an on-air apology on a repeating loop.

      Fox didn’t. Smartmatic isn’t interested in actual justice or proving any points to America. They just want to get paid.

        Smartmatic isn’t going to get paid in the future unless its machines are considered trustworthy by the public, so they have a very big interest in keeping elections safe and secure. That their motivations to do so are financial doesn’t really bother me. Should it?
