OAN denies defaming Smartmatic or anyone else, and its lawyers say nobody at OAN broke the law in connection with the alleged passwords. In a recent court filing, Smartmatic publicly disclosed – for the first time – the original email that OAN received on January 5, 2021, containing the alleged passwords. If you come across any addition (sic) information, please pass along,” according to emails made public in court filings. OAN handed over the emails to Smartmatic last year, but later claimed they were privileged and should be returned.

Washington CNN —Russian intelligence is operating a systematic program to launder pro-Kremlin propaganda through private relationships between Russian operatives and unwitting US and western targets, according to newly declassified US intelligence. “At the end of the day, this unwitting target is disseminating Russian influence operation, Russian propaganda to their target public,” the US official said. In fact, the FSB directed his efforts and “almost certainly financed the project,” according to the declassified intelligence. The FSB does use similar tactics to influence political opinion within Russia, according to the intelligence. “The purpose of those protests really was … designed to sell it to the Russian people,” the US official said.

Eve Hanan Courtesy Eve HananNot surprisingly, there are other criminal laws that are straightforward and appropriate to invoke against Trump. But Willis doesn’t stop there, and her invocation of RICO charges in particular raises concerns. To justify her RICO charges against Trump, Willis must point to particular acts by the former president that advanced the alleged criminal enterprise. But criminal law is designed to punish individual, not collective, guilt. By using RICO, Willis has given the defendants a potential prison sentence of five to 20 years.

Fox News has sent a cease-and-desist letter to Tucker Carlson, alleging that the conservative network's former star anchor breached his contract by launching a new show on Twitter, according to a source familiar with the matter.

The first installment of Carlson's new show, "Tucker on Twitter," debuted June 6. The conflict between Fox News and Carlson comes at an inflection point for the conservative media ecosystem. "Tucker Carlson Tonight," a cornerstone of the Fox News lineup since 2016, was one of the most-watched shows on American cable news.

Tucker Carlson's dismissal signals a new realignment in conservative media. Nobody at Fox "was as connected to the MAGA base as Tucker Carlson," one ex-Trump official said. Whatever the reason, Carlson's dismissal signals a new realignment in conservative media. Last month, Tucker Carlson Tonight was the top-rated program among all news channels with 3.25 million viewers including 421,000 viewers in the coveted age 25-54 demographic. His previous work includes the 2022 profile of Carlson, The Tucker Carlson Origin Story.
Vladimir Solovyov is a notorious Russian propagandist. He says Tucker Carlson should run for President of the United States. Back when Carlson had a Fox News show he would often parrot Kremlin talking points. Solovyov is also, apparently, a Tucker Carlson fan. In March 2022, Mother Jones obtained a directive the Kremlin gave to state-friendly media outlets in Russia: "It is essential to use as much as possible fragments of broadcasts of the popular Fox News host Tucker Carlson."
Tucker Carlson and Fox News parted ways Monday. "I think that'll kill Fox," Glenn Beck said during his streaming show . "Wherever Tucker Carlson goes, America will follow!"

George Santos doubled down on claims that his mother died due to 9/11. Santos explained that he meant she died of cancer due to "toxic dust" from the terror attack. The NYT previously reported that immigration records showed his mother was in Brazil on 9/11. He claimed in a 2021 tweet that "9/11 claimed my mother's life," even though his mother, Fatima Devolder, died of cancer in 2016. When asked about the immigration documents in the OANN interview, Santos responded that they "didn't know where that came from."
George Santos became angry when challenged by a reporter over his lies on the campaign trail. Santos has been found to have fabricated a string of claims about his background and career. "You know, I don't know what you mean by that, because I have," Santos replied, as Sinclair remarked that he seemed to be becoming angry. "And, you know, I don't know what is asked of me right now when you ask: 'Oh, you have not shown remorse or you don't seem to look sorry'. I don't know what looking sorry looks like to you, Caitlin," he added.
A Connecticut jury on Wednesday ordered conspiracy theorist Alex Jones to pay nearly $1 billion for defaming the families of the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting victims. Misinformation purveyors often use a variety of rhetorical techniques to create misleading impressions without making demonstrably false statements. Indeed, misinformation purveyors often use a variety of rhetorical techniques to create misleading impressions without making demonstrably false statements. These different layers provide a multiplicity of points of resistance to the efforts to hold misinformation purveyors accountable. But they are not a solution to the lie machines built by incredibly savvy, incredibly cynical pundits like Alex Jones.
Высокопоставленный сотрудник компании Dominion Voting Systems, продающей программное обеспечение и машины для голосования, подал в суд на штаб президента США Дональда Трампа и его сторонников за клевету о подтасовках результатов президентских выборов 2020 года. Истец, директор по продуктовой стратегии и безопасности компании Эрик Кумер вынужден скрываться после обвинений в использовании своего положения в компании, «чтобы помочь украсть выборы для Джо Байдена». По его словам, ответчики угрожали ему убийством, преследовали и нанесли «неисчислимый ущерб для его репутации как национального эксперта по системам голосования». Трамп неоднократно отказывался признать свое поражение на выборах президента США. Он полагает, что Байден проиграл выборы «с большим отрывом во всех шести колеблющихся штатах», а результаты были подтасованы.
