Gateway Pundit settled defamation lawsuit brought by election workers it had falsely accused of wrongdoing

The far-right website the Gateway Pundit acknowledged for the first time on Saturday that there had not been any fraud during ballot counting in Atlanta in 2020 when Donald Trump lost the presidency, a significant concession from one of the most influential conservative sites that plays a key role in spreading election misinformation.

The statement, the first acknowledgment from the site that there was no proof of fraud in Atlanta, came days after the site settled a defamation lawsuit with Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Shaye Moss, two local election workers whom the site falsely accused of wrongdoing. The terms of the settlement were not disclosed publicly, but the site appears to have removed all mention of the two women.

      Then they’d have to admit that they we’re wrong. The “smart” ones will just shut up about it and continue to argue different points, the dumb ones will continue to shout at the top of their lungs that the election was stolen. They’ve formed an identity around this conman…this stooge. How can they stop now?
