Look at what a ruinous libel suit will do to motherfuckers. It's beautiful man.
Not ruinous enough if they're still on the air.
That's why they're running the disclaimers now - the trial hasn't been held yet and they're bracing themselves for impact.
Unlike Fox News, who could settle with Dominion for $787M and carry on as usual, Newsmax's pockets don't run nearly as deep. If the court rules against them in September, they'll most likely be utterly screwed.
Ah, I wasn't aware of that. Good, fuck 'em.
So, how long before we get a man-baby tantrum from the orange turd on his safe-space social media platform?
"We" don't get it at all, if we don't want to.

Doesn't mean much of they keep letting him projectile vomit nonsense?
Why is this news and upvoted now? They have been running these disclaimers for a long time.
I believe they started running disclaimers after Fox, Dominion reach $787M settlement over election claims which happened last April.
Isn't the Smartmatic lawsuit still in play? That one has the potential to be even bigger.
