So, Fox News settled with Dominion. What a shocker. Turns out even the supposed champions of free speech have a price. Dominion, the voting machine company at the heart of all the 2020 election shenanigans (yes, we're still talking about it), sued Fox for defamation, claiming they knowingly aired false claims about their machines. Fox, predictably, caved. No trial, no juicy depositions, just a big fat check and a whole lot of unanswered questions.

What's the message here? Simple: challenge the approved narrative, and the woke corporations will come for you. They'll bleed you dry with lawsuits until you either shut up or settle. The First Amendment? Apparently, that's just a suggestion these days. Fox, instead of fighting this thing tooth and nail, decided to write a check. Why? Probably because their lawyers told them they'd lose, or because they didn't want to risk exposing even more internal communications that might make them look bad. Either way, it's a bad look for anyone who believes in actual free speech.

Don't get me wrong, Fox News isn't exactly a bastion of truth. They're a corporation, and like all corporations, they care about one thing: money. But they were at least willing to give a platform to dissenting voices, even if those voices were sometimes a little… out there. Now, thanks to this settlement, even that's in doubt. Expect more sanitised, focus-grouped 'news' from here on out. The real losers in all this? The American people, who are now even further deprived of honest and open discussion about important issues.

Of course, the libs are celebrating this as a victory for 'democracy' and 'truth'. But let's be real, it's just another step towards silencing dissent and controlling the narrative. So, crack open a cold one, folks, and raise a glass to the death of free speech. It was nice while it lasted. Maybe someday we'll live in a country where you can actually question the official story without being sued into oblivion. But don't hold your breath. The Swamp wins again! They probably celebrated by drinking some soy lattes, while the rest of us are stuck drinking gas station coffee wondering when things went so off the rails. Dominion truly dominated this debate. The true victory is escaping the clutches of a full-blown trial. At this stage, it’s hard to know who to believe, but the reality is that truth does not exist, it just evolves and transforms with the telling of each new story.
