Newsmax Will Pay Dominion Voting Systems $67 Million to Settle Lawsuit over 2020 Election Lies

HeadlineAug 19, 2025

Newsmax has agreed to pay $67 million to settle a lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems over the far-right TV channel’s repeated lies about the 2020 election. Following Joe Biden’s victory, Newsmax personalities and guests spread the baseless conspiracy theory that the election results were fraudulent and that Dominion’s voting hardware and software were to blame. The settlement comes more than two years after Fox News agreed to pay Dominion more than $787 million to settle a similar case.
