Stephen Shackelford: 福克斯新闻的和解赔偿是对其错误行为的追责。Dominion通过法律手段迫使福克斯承认其传播了虚假信息,并支付了巨额赔偿。这一和解不仅是对Dominion的补偿,也是对媒体行业的一个警示,表明即使是享有高度言论自由保护的媒体,也不能随意传播虚假和诽谤性信息。 David Folkenflik: 福克斯新闻与Dominion的巨额和解,虽然没有公开道歉,但其规模和公开披露的事实本身就代表了一种对错误行为的承认。福克斯在和解声明中承认了法院的裁决,即某些关于Dominion的陈述是虚假的,但并未直接承认其自身传播了这些虚假信息。然而,和解金额的巨大和公开披露的方式,表明福克斯实际上承认了其错误行为。这一案件揭示了福克斯在危机中的应对方式,以及媒体言论的界限。
