Fox News had a terrible, horrible, no good very bad day. At least according to Jimmy Kimmel, who cited the network’s $787.5 million defamation settlement as proof that lies, in fact, don’t pay.
“No company in America had a worse day than Fox News,” Kimmel said near the top of Tuesday night’s show. While some might say that the network settling a $1.6 billion defamation suit for just $787.5 million was actually a win for Tucker Carlson and friends—Kimmel knows that even that much smaller amount is still going to hurt the network. “It’s gonna take a lot of reverse mortgage ads to pay that one off,” he joked.
Yet while Kimmel understands that Fox is the “main villain” in the story, he said he’s not about to let Dominion Voting Systems off the hook so easily.
