The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

TallyHo.... It's Fox huntin' season and the trail is hot!

OAN settled with Atty Cohen and dropped trou for being lying sacks of sh!t (but no $ figure mentioned for the settlement).

Fox got tagged nearly $800 million for the Dominion loss. Smartmatic is seeking $2.7 billion.

Now Hunter Biden has retained Mark Gerragos to go after Fox bigly.

"For the last five years, Fox News has relentlessly attacked Hunter Biden and made him a caricature in order to boost ratings and for its financial gain. The recent indictment of FBI informant Smirnov has exposed the conspiracy of disinformation that has been fueled by Fox, enabled by their paid agents and monetized by the Fox enterprise. We plan on holding them accountable."

"After his indictment and arrest, Smirnov admitted that the story he received had come straight from Russian intelligence. By centering and repeating the fake story, Fox had become a willing Russian disinformation mule, along with many members of Congress. But it never retracted the story or apologized for its role. Instead, it continued to claim that the source, Smirnov, was “highly credible.”

That was mainly Sean Hannity lying his ass off incessantly. Anything for ratings, eh?

Maybe $2.5 billion for Hunter if it goes to trial? After all, Fox made a sh!t-ton of money running Hunter headline pants-on-fire stories. If Fox agrees to settle, then $750 million plus Hannity drops trou, figuratively, every night for a month.
