Smartmatic and One America News (OAN) have reached a settlement in the company's defamation lawsuit against the pro-MAGA outlet.
The undisclosed settlement ends the voting tech company's first lawsuit against multiple conservative media enterprises and personalities who repeated former President Donald Trump's disproven claims of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
“Smartmatic has resolved its litigation against OANN through a confidential settlement,” its lead attorney, Erik Connolly, confirmed to Mediaite:
The company also sued Fox News and Newsmax for airing false claims about its role in the 2020 election. Those suits are ongoing.
