You may have heard that Fox News and its parent company Fox Corporation agreed to pay Dominion Voting Systems $787.5 million–yes, $787,500,000.00–in damages yesterday after the election technology company sued the right-wing propaganda network for defamation over the lies it peddled surrounding Trump’s 2020 election loss.
Politico called the settlement a “historic rebuke for the influential conservative media outlet” but was likely done to spare the company from “weeks of embarrassing testimony that would have put the widespread internal dysfunction at Fox News on full public display.”

But why was the Attorney General of the United States taking personal calls from a Fox News anchor to begin with?
But if you tuned into Laura Ingraham‘s show last night, you would’ve had absolutely no idea that her employer had just caved in one of the largest media defamation settlements in history.
Instead, Ingraham, who, BTW, was on the witness list in the Dominion lawsuit, spent last night’s show pushing even more lies about what she calls the “Biden Family Crime Organization”, which allegedly involves clandestine business dealings overseas that have benefited every single member of the president’s family, including his dog.
One person who wasn’t standing for her crap was her gay brother, Curtis, who took to Twitter this morning to remind everyone that his baby sister is a lying, hateful, shameless P.O.S.

Curtis Ingraham strikes again!
“My lying sister continues to foment,” he tweeted. “Even after Fox’s $800 million defamation settlement, the propaganda machine keeps humming along. This is what zero ethics and a lack of shame looks like.”
OOF. We would not want to be a guest at this family’s Thanksgiving holiday dinner. (Actually, we would.)
This isn’t the first time Curtis has put his gay-hating sister on blast for broadcasting lies and misinformation and generally being a garbage human being who is doing harm to the world.
Over the past few of years, he’s accumulated over 150K followers by calling her out for the damaging, destructive, and untrue things she says about everyone from public health officials to LGBTQ people to drag queens.
He has also called her “nauseating” and a “monster” and, in a 2018 interview with Daily Beast, he said, “She’s very smart, she’s well-spoken, but her emotional heart is just kind of dead.”
Here’s how others have been responding to Laura Ingraham’s segment from last night…
How much more money are you guys willing to pay for your lies?

None of you are showing receipts. Your company just paid a huge settlement due to your lies about election fraud; your company also admitted that they had been untruthful. Why would anyone believe you?

Amazing – if I cost my employer $787M, they’d probably fire me. Yet here you are…

Always a “may” in her absurd allegations…like Laura “may” be telling the truth but there are 787,500,000 reasons to believe she’s lying.

Use of the words “may have” means they didn’t.

You should a segment on the $787.5 million for telling lies.

It's hilarious what you'll do to keep people from focusing on the Dominion case.

The two largest libel verdicts in US history are both against right-wing media, because right-wing media is a cesspool of liars. Alex Jones – $965 million Fox "News" – $787.5 million
— Pablo Sixty (@PabloSixty) April 19, 2023
In a statement in response to yesterday’s $787.5 million settlement, Fox said, “We acknowledge the Court’s rulings finding certain claims about Dominion to be false. This settlement reflects Fox’s continued commitment to the highest journalistic standards. We are hopeful that our decision to resolve this dispute with Dominion amicably, instead of the acrimony of a divisive trial, allows the country to move forward from these issues.”

I feel for Curtis. It couldn’t have been pleasant growing up with a sociopath.

Now that Fox has admitted that the entire organization is made up of serial liars, who will believe anything Ingraham says???? Oh, wait……Fox viewers haven’t been informed about the Dominion lawsuit, much less the settlement!

The gold cross around her neck nightly……isn’t that SPECIAL!

It’s funny because for years I really thought she was just hateful Lipstick Lesbian who couldn’t get a date. Now I feel she is so far into the closet that she will say anything just to make sure she isn’t outed. I’m not sure how she tinkles with that dried up vajayjay without it hurting?

Curtis is so awesome and tireless in dragging his hideous sister. He is seriously under-appreciated.

Unfortunately, Dominion caved and settled. They should have let the trial start before they settled. This way they might have been able to possible dictate the wording in faux news non-apology and received a higher settlement. From what I have read the Judge in this matter had ruled against faux news on other matters and issues in regards to this trial. I also would have like to hear about rupert, tucker and laura explaining their actions. Let us hope the Steamatic trial finishes them off.
