Putting The Internet In Perspective

The usual course of an 11th hour settlement is to go to court and announce it on the record, with a prepared order for the judge to sign finishing off the case. The only fact question left in this case is “actual malice.” Why would Dominion settle now for less than the damages it’s seeking? It could happen, it just seems highly unlikely. The delay is most likely the court’s business, not a sign of an as yet unknown agreement.

There’s just a freaking lot of ignorance out there. Puts this kind of thing in perspective:
Yeah, that’s not gonna happen, either.

  1. I keep remembering how so many online were all "I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!" when Alvin Bragg took some time in the investigation of Trump and they were sure some kind of corrupt fix was in. I don't think the internet made us all impatient children with paranoid delusions, I think it just exposed something endemic to us as TV edukated dolts who expect everything to be wrapped up in the hour time frame of a crime show.
