Advertising boycotts don’t restrain the rightwing network, but the Dominion lawsuit may succeed in holding them to account

I know there are threads about the actual case but I am more interested in what comes after..
I am not sure that they will. The problem their defence has is that theyhave given the prosecution overwhelming evidence that their presenters knew the so called steal claims were nonsense.
I cant see them stopping their deceptive strategy. I can see them not leaving such a paper trail next time. In that way they will be able to claim innocence and continue to spread lies.
Whether folks continue to trust thm is a different matter. I doubt their core audience will lose much sleep overr the revelations and nobody else really matters.
But how can you believe a word that hannity or carlson say ? Perhaps the Judge will make them apologise on air.
FOX, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, NYT, WaPo, TIME, WSJ, HuffPo, VOX, NYP, DailyMail, Forbes, Buzzfeed… all filtered thorough activist big tech platforms like Google, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc… they all are guilty of lying to the public for their ideological reasons to support the party they desire to be in power.
I’m not sure why you’re asking one to answer for it while ignoring all the rest. Hell, out of the 16 media sources I listed, 14 are card-carrying Democrat media institutions who provably lied or knowingly spread false information about COVID, Russian collusion, where COVID originated, BLM claims, Hunter Bidens laptop, etc… while all 4 platforms I listed are exposed as being politically active on behalf of the Democrats… and yet you focus on one of the two that are usually affiliated with being pro-GOP?
As far as damage from lying goes.. You need to worry about the elephant crushing the living room before you worry about the mouse that’s nibbling on the carpet
