NewsMax settles with Dominion for $67 million [1]

['Jason Weisberger']

Date: 2025-08-18  

Dominion Voting Systems will receive what should be a crippling settlement from NewsMax,

a right-wing cable conspiracy network known for pro-Trump commentary, sensationalist framing, and wild-eyed theories.

Newsmax is on the hook for $67 million for spouting egregious lies about the 2020 presidential election.

The right-wing cable network agreed to pay Dominion Voting Systems $27 million this month and another $40 million in the next two years to settle a defamation case, reported CNN.

"We are pleased to have settled this matter," a Dominion spokesperson said.
