"Accountability is coming": Dominion turns focus on Trump-World after scoring Fox News payout

Justin Nelson, Dominion's lead counsel, told CNN,

"This is one of seven lawsuits. This one settled today. There are six left. And I think it sends a message to the other six lawsuits that accountability is coming as well. It's not over.

We have lawsuits against Newsmax, against One America News, against Sidney Powell, against Rudolph Giuliani and Mike Lindell and MyPillow and Patrick Byrne. And many of them are still propagating these lies about the election, and they are still having an effect."

"We intend to hold people accountable because, as we have said, the truth really does matter and if you are lying, that has consequences."

"What this settlement today shows is that the actual malice standard isn't just on paper ... journalists can't knowingly lie," said Nelson.

"Journalists can't say one thing in private and another thing in public.

And when we have that protection from actual malice, and that is from the First Amendment, we can be assured that journalists will report the truth with the full freedom the First Amendment allows."

Smartmatic, another voting tech company embroiled in TrumpWorld conspiracy theories, has also sued Fox News, its hosts, and other Trump allies.

The list of those who have been sued in connection with advancing election falsehoods includes:

1.) Trump attorney Sidney Powell;
former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani;
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell;
Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne.

2.) Fox News and several of its hosts including:
Jeanine Pirro;
Lou Dobbs;
Maria Bartiromo.

3.) Right-wing outlet Newsmax;
and One America News,

all of whom promoted false evidence which refused to acknowledge Biden's win in the 2020 election.
