Then it would probably be smart not to bite the hand that feeds it by sanctioned lying. On further review, Stable St Capial based in Toronto is the owner of Dominion as I originally stated. Not State St. Capital. The maddow suit was dismissed. The CNN suit was settled and was poor journalism by CNN but not nearly as impactful to the nation as Fox flaming the fires of the Big Lie and an open question as to whether CNN knew their reporting was incorrect.

From the article you linked. Friday's ruling stated, in part: "[The] Court finds that the contested statement is an opinion that cannot serve as the basis for a defamation claim.

After Defendants’ motion for attorney’s fees is resolved, the Court will instruct the Clerk to close this case." A federal judge on Friday dismissed a $10 million defamation lawsuit by One America News (OAN) against Rachel Maddow, finding that a “reasonable viewer” would know the MSNBC prime-time host was only offering her opinion when she called the right-leaning network “paid Russian propaganda.” Maddow also cited a report from The Daily Beast, which found OAN employed “a Kremlin-paid journalist.” “Instead, he or she would follow the facts of the Daily Beast article; that OAN and Sputnik share a reporter and both pay this reporter to write articles. Anything beyond this is Maddow’s opinion or her exaggeration of the facts,” the judge noted in the ruling.
