Newsmax settles Dominion election defamation case for $67m

Newsmax settles Dominion election defamation case for $67m, accused of spreading false claims about the 2020 US election. Dominion filed the lawsuit in 2021, alleging Newsmax broadcasted "verifiably false lies" causing economic harm. While maintaining its coverage was fair, Newsmax settled, stating judicial rulings favored the plaintiffs, denying a fair trial. The settlement followed a ruling that Newsmax defamed Dominion, with the trial to determine malice and damages originally set for October.
