Blackrock owns something like 59M shares of Dominion, and also 45M shares of Newscorp, owners of Fox News... I think there was a plan to do something about people asking questions and getting too close.. No real money was lost in this transaction, but I bet there were agreements made... And they attempt to put fear into anyone else that questions anything.
They just capitalized Dominion for 2024, and they elevated the narrative that those denying election fraud are committing libel. Just because they’re evil doesn’t mean they’re that stupid.
Discovery already occurred. Depositions already occurred. Lots of bad stuff for Fox already came out. Emails/Texts from Tucker got released as part of the court documents. Murdoch himself sat for a deposition.
The trial would not have been about "Did Fox defame Dominion" because the judge issued a summary judgement on that. That means the facts were already proven and a jury would not need to establish the defamation. There was only going to be one issue at trial.
In the court documents. Dominion argued that Fox made
(1) false statements;
(2) of and concerning Dominion;
(3) that were published;
(4) that were defamatory per se; and
(5) did so with actual malice.
The judge said the facts of 1, 2, 3 and 4 were true. The only issue before a jury would #5. To prove "actual malice" Dominion would have to prove Fox "either knew that the statement was false at the time, or else demonstrated “reckless disregard” as to if it was false."
Fox was saying one thing in private and a different thing on air.
The judge determined that Dominion had proven this. He issued what is known as a summary judgement. As a point of law, the judge said Fox had defamed Dominion on its shows and that issued was settled and need not go to a jury. There was only one issue left for the trial.
First, what did the judge base it summary judgement on?
This lawsuit started in March 2021. Since then Dominion was able to get discovery (as was Fox). Dominion got texts and emails from Fox executives and hosts. Last month we saw what Hannity, Tucker, Laura and others were saying in private about the claims about Dominion. This was in court documents filed last month. Dominion also got to depose several people under oath including Rupert Murdoch. You can read a ton about the inner discussions Fox was having in the judge's ruling. Skip the law stuff and just look for the quotes.

The only issue at trial was going do be: did Fox act with malice. "Actual Malice" means saying false defamatory stuff while knowing it's false or being so reckless you don't even look into if it's false.
Malice only applies in the case of public figures. If you sued me for defamation, all you would have to show is I defamed you. But there's more protection for someone who says something about public figure. In that case, you have show to actual malice. It's a higher standard of proof.
Brilliant way of looking at this. Your theory makes as much sense as any other explanation, but it really resonates with much of the newly-realized outlook I've gained, thanks to Q.
Once I wrapped my head around "book deals", a new world opened up. Good jorb!
Yup - and they’ll get paid back (if they even pay), AND they send a message to the shleepers that “oh, dominion, we were wrong…nothing to see here - move along - you see how we got burnt.” Are ya still watching fox?!?! 😂😂😂😂
We are on the track. I had the same thought moments after hearing of the Tucker FIRING, not resignation. It all clicked as Dominion's name scrolled across the bottom of the screen, more like crawled if you get my drift. Extremely fortunate for FOX who will pretend Tucker is totally to blame for the nearly billion dollar pay out AKA 'settlement' which lead to the 'dismisal'. FOX has now removed all doubt that it is indeed FAKE NEWS, although many patriots have felt that way pre Trump.
Hmm, FOX lawsuit against Tucker for the Dominion settlement? Can a corporation sue an ex-employee for damage to the company's reputation? For legal costs incurred?
I could see them doing this to try and destroy Tucker. Discovery could be interesting.
A corporation can sue an ex-employee. Defamation would be one of the reasons, but I suspect that a company would only do this as a countersuit if the employee sued them.
I would also guess Dominion didn't want a lot of stuff coming out at trial or being on a court record. A lawsuit would open Dominion to discovery, I doubt they wanted that.
Damned fine insight. Hadn't thought enough about it to put that together. So now Dumbengine has $8B MORE to steal the erection with and launder stacks back to there demoncrap feeders
Same strategy CCP officials use to put taxpayer money in their own pocket. They go to a casino and intentionally "lose" all of "their money" in a bet, but they're in cahoots with the owners.
FOX and Dominion are on the same team that much is certain

This makes the most sense.

Here's a question- Are settlements like this considered a cost of doing business? And therefore a tax write-off?
Yes. Tax deductible.
Yes and they settled without even going to court, evidence would have been discovered and presented, makes you wonder 🤔

Can you explain this part to me again, please, fren, and type slower 🙂 am not a lawfag, this part is very confusing to me.

Thank you for your time explaining that to me. 🙂

I had the same thought.
Re-selected
Blackrock paid Blackrock. Big whoopie.
yeah this all feels like a double down from the MSM - globohomo conglomerate. Fox was controlled opposition so this drama makes sense.
Yup - and they’ll get paid back (if they even pay), AND they send a message to the shleepers that “oh, dominion, we were wrong…nothing to see here - move along - you see how we got burnt.” Are ya still watching fox?!?! 😂😂😂😂
That’s exactly how I saw it. Big money funneling scheme.
It’s money laundering if you ask me

RFK JR just tweeted that Big Pharma likely ordered FOX to pull the plug on Tucker or they take all thier money and go.

Damages are not taxed either!
They are just moving their money about.
