CNN’s Oliver Darcy wondered aloud if Fox News will “move to settle in the next few weeks with Smartmatic” after the blockbuster settlement in the Dominion defamation lawsuit. Next up for Fox is the $2.7 billion Smartmatic lawsuit, in which Smartmatic lead counsel Erik Connolly has already said he will demand a full retraction and apology from Fox. So, Smartmatic wants, what, like more than twice the money that Dominion settled for and a full apology. OLIVER DARCY, CNN SENIOR MEDIA REPORTER: That’s right, John, Fox’s legal – their legal troubles are far from over. And that’s because of this Smartmatic lawsuit, which I — as you pointed out, is even bigger than the Dominion lawsuit that they just settled.
