    "Ruby Freeman and Wandrea ‘Shaye’ Moss did not engage in ballot fraud or criminal misconduct while working at State Farm Arena on election night."

    Pretty much says it all. They just paid a settlement for their lies. As with all guilty parties, they refuse to disclose the details.


    Right-wing site Gateway Pundit acknowledges inquiry cleared two Georgia election workers - The Washington Post

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/10/12/gateway-pundit-georgia-election-workers-settle/


    The Gateway Pundit, a far-right website, published a note from its editor on Saturday acknowledging that two election workers in Georgia did not engage in ballot fraud in 2020, days after the publication settled a lawsuit brought against it for falsely reporting that they had tampered with election results.

    Earlier this week, the site settled with Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, two former Georgia election workers. The terms of the settlement have not been disclosed.

    will the site survive? The settlement was over $100 million.

    Sounds like it might get overturned under the 8th Amendment.

    Why would it be overturned. Gateway pundit agreed to the settlement amount.

    In that case, Gateway Pundit can afford it.

    Not necessarily. By giving up gateway pundit, they may not have to give uo other personal assets to pay for an amount had they taken it to court and lost.

    Where are you getting this equation of FoxNews = "working folks"? :roll:

    I'm a working folk, and I watch MSNBC.

    And I would measure disgust for an audience in whether you are willing to lie to them and mislead them. FoxNews has already proven they will do both. So much for respecting "working folks".

    I was referring to your trump-like cheap shot at their IQ. I do not suckle from partisan media nipples. Each are just selling a product they know their audience is eager to consume.

    But only one of those audiences is engaged in willful ignorance. Blaming 62 losses in courts all across the country on The Deep State, when 1/3 of those judges were appointed by Trump, doesn't speak well of someone's intelligence. The examples of FoxNews viewer credulity are too numerous to list. They're ripe to be duped with another "migrant caravan invasion".

    Wait a sec - you countered with working folks when I mentioned low IQ viewers.

    Do you see working folks as having low IQ?

    Making claims that call for the operation of another’s mind comes at the expense of one’s own credibility. You are not qualified to speak for what they do not know.
    It appears as though you are not aware of illegal immigration issue. Does MSNBC not cover the border crisis?

    Who? Which “fraudster”? Did you know if you Google “Dumbest man on the Internet”. James Hoft original owner of the Gateway pundit floats to the top?

    That would make me ask the question who would make that claim and is reporting it?

    Couldn't be some left wing outfit could it?

    I didn't ask the question without knowing the answer first. Media matters lol

    And the other person you mentioned? Well, that's a woman.

    Some people still make the distinction so that might be important in the search engine

    HT, from now on, I'm gonna let you handle Doofen.

    I know a few low IQ foks, and none of them are working. In fact, they are wards of the state.

    Your mistake, doofen, is assuming something.

    Always clarify before you pull an arrow from your quiver.

    Boebert is still the champion. Voting for her has to be embarrassing at best.

    I agree with you that it is time to go back to men running everything. They are more rational, less emotional and better decision makers.
