Dismissed, with a fine, & it's confidential. Typical, & disappointing.
"Voting software firm Smartmatic and pro-Trump conspiracy network One America News have reached a confidential settlement in the defamation lawsuit accusing OAN of peddling lies about the 2020 presidential election."
@KimPerales Not a fan of confidential settlements, as it allows too much misconduct to be swept under the table.
I think that once a party has filed a lawsuit, thereby availing themselves of the judicial system, the public has an interest in knowing the outcome and there should be a presumption that all settlements are public record.
