Dominion sued [[Fox News]] in March alleging the network had knowingly spread false news about its machines to improve failing ratings, saying they had “set out to lure viewers back...by intentionally and falsely blaming Dominion” for President Donald Trump’s loss. Dominion settled its defamation lawsuit against Fox News on April 18, 2023, shortly before witness testimony was to start. Dominion’s lead attorney said at a news conference the settlement will pay the voting machine company $787.5 million. Dominion originally sued Fox for $1.6 billion in March 2021 for defamation, alleging the network pushed 2020 election fraud claims involving the company’s voting machines despite knowing they were false for financial gain. The judge presiding over the case had previously issued a summary judgment ruling that found Fox’s on-air claims about Dominion were false, but the trial was set to determine whether Fox had acted with “actual malice”.<ref>https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2023/04/18/fox-news-settles-dominion-defamation-case-for-7875-million-dominion-lawyer-says/?sh=2246b7291509</ref>
