TL;DR Summary

A recent settlement of $787.5 million in a defamation lawsuit against Fox News by Dominion Voting Systems has led to a decline in trust among some viewers.

The decline in trust in news media has been ongoing, with many Americans having an unfavorable view of U.S. news media. This has led to a vicious cycle where viewers don't trust the news media, which further erodes trust.
