Serious Trouble episode (with a re-recorded section after settlement) about Dominion dropping today. We didn’t talk about:
* No trial result would have had the judge ordering Fox to apologize on air
*No trial result would have resulted in Fox being punished for damage to democracy
*. No trial result could have ”established facts” as true or false for all purposes in America
If your expectations for the legal system are not reality-based you’re going to be consistently disappointed.

Yeah, people don't seem to understand that the legal system is designed to protect the wealthy and powerful not punish them or hold them accountable.

The best thing the average person can hope for is to never have a reason to be involved in the legal system.

Lots of hand wringing but realistically nothing was going to change how Fox did business and it would be insane to watch a corporation like Dominion forgo a huge pay day. Ideally they'd take care of their employees that received death threats, but unless you like more disappointment it's probably best not to follow where that money is going to wind up.
