can needed commitment to the highest journalistic standards oh, absolutely sky-high. it was not the ending a lot of people were hoping for dominion s lead attorney sai it did represent a tangibl victory over the lies that fox knowingly spread the truth matters lies have consequences over two years ago, a torren of lies swept dominion and election officials acros america, into an alternative universe of conspiracy theorie causing grievous harm to dominion and the country today s settlement o $787,500,000 represent vindication and accountability the reason that there was s much attention on this case, the reason it was a big deal
