So tell me --- did MSNBC ever get cited by a court for concealing evidence? This seems to be a regular thing for Fox News.

Wild -- they reached a $787.5 million settlement.
Analysis: This is an unequivocal rebuke of Fox News

The $787.5 million settlement in the Fox-Dominion case is an unequivocal rebuke of the right-wing news network and its journalism, said Elie Honig, former assistant US attorney for the Southern District of New York
"Translated it means we got caught lying by the judge – and I think that's exactly why we are seeing this absolutely jaw-dropping number," Honig told CNN's Jake Tapper.
Although the amount is about half of what Dominion was asking for, it's still an astonishing sum, he said.
"I didn't think there was any way they would get $1.6 billion – even when they proved their case, even if they proved it overwhelmingly to a jury. Let's remember, by its own estimation, Dominion valued the entire company at somewhere between $30 and $80 million. This settlement is 10 times the value of Dominion as an entire company. That's how strong a statement this is with this number," Honig explained.

Its called extortion
You have to settle, the risk is to high to leave it to the jury
The main goal was achieved, get private Fox emails to hurt Trump and Fox
no, extortion is what Donnie did w/Ukrainian lethal aid leading to his impeachment.
Smartmatic is up next...
The flagship of right wing media just admitted to lying and spreading false information to its viewers. Many of those lies were spread right here on this forum and your response is “move along?”
Strange.
