The settlements between voting technology companies and far-right networks reveal the limitations of defamation law in addressing accountability for election misinformation, leaving public justice insufficient.
Many settlements lack transparency, as seen with Fox and Dominion's agreement, highlighting a significant gap in how defamation cases are processed and resolved.
Defamation law primarily serves specific individuals, making it challenging to tackle broader misinformation, particularly when allegations aren't consistently directed at individuals.
The complexities of libel law hinder justice for reputations damaged by misinformation broadcasted by major news outlets, further complicating accountability in the election context.
