@KlasfeldReports My problem is this: The Civil War ended when the South's armies were defeated, but the South's population never really admitted defeat. Same with FOX's listeners. If they won't hear a retraction and apology, as far as they're concerned FOX's loss will never have happened.
@rmatile1 Trial wouldn’t have forced an apology either, and far from clear it would have gotten a better outcome for Dominion. As for the public reckoning, a massive amount of their private emails, text messages and sworn testimony is out their either way.
@KlasfeldReports the fact so many are stuck on this hive-mind thought that an apology would have restored peace and love, and Dominion is the selfish bad company is just baffling.
