In his Tuesday night monologue, Jimmy Kimmel called out Fox News for its recent $787 million settlement in the defamation case filed by Dominion Voting Systems. Kimmel expressed disbelief over Fox News’ statement claiming the settlement reflected the network’s commitment to the highest journalistic standards, stating that Fox News was already lying in their statement about lying. Kimmel went on to express his frustration with Dominion for settling, which he claimed allowed Fox News to continue spreading lies without any consequences.

Kimmel also criticized the lack of accountability on the part of Fox News, pointing out that the network’s hosts and guests who knowingly spread false information to their viewers were not required to apologize or provide any testimony. Instead, they could simply continue to spread lies and damage democracy while Dominion and their lawyers went shopping for yachts.

Kimmel even joked that it would take a lot of reverse mortgage ads for Fox News to pay the hefty settlement. His scathing critique of Fox News’ unethical behavior highlights the need for accountability and truth in journalism.
