ATLANTA - A judge has dismissed conservative cable news channel One America News
Network from a defamation lawsuit filed by two Georgia election workers after
the two sides reached a settlement.

Fulton County election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea "Shaye" Moss in December
sued OAN, its owners and its chief White House correspondent over debunked
claims that the mother-and-daughter pair introduced suitcases of illegal ballots
while working as ballot counters at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta in November
2020 and committed other acts of fraud to try to alter the outcome of the
presidential election in Georgia.




The terms of the settlement agreement were not disclosed, but both sides
described it as fair.

Freeman and Moss on Wednesday filed a motion to dismiss OAN from the lawsuit,
and U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell signed off on the dismissal Thursday.

The two women had also sued former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, a lawyer
for former President Donald Trump, saying he amplified the lies about them
during frequent appearances on OAN. Their claims against Giuliani continue: They
filed an amended complaint Wednesday in federal court in Washington.

OAN on Monday tweeted a clip from its broadcast with an anchor describing an
"updated report from Georgia officials." A voiceover then says state officials
"have concluded that there was no widespread voter fraud by election workers who
counted ballots at the State Farm Arena in November 2020. The results of this
investigation indicate that Ruby Freeman and Wandrea ‘Shaye’ Moss did not engage
in ballot fraud or criminal misconduct while working at State Farm Arena on
election night." The clip goes on to mention the settlement between the network
and the two women.

In fact, Georgia officials concluded in late 2020, shortly after the allegations
against the two women surfaced, that the pair had done nothing wrong.

Moss and Freeman also filed a separate defamation lawsuit against The Gateway
Pundit, its owner Jim Hoft and his brother Joe Hoft, a contributor to the
conservative website. That lawsuit is pending in federal court in Missouri.

After narrowly losing the presidential election in Georgia, Trump made unproven
claims that widespread fraud led to his loss in the state. He particularly
zeroed in on Fulton County, a Democratic stronghold that includes most of
Atlanta.

Moss has worked for the Fulton County elections department since 2012 and
supervised the absentee ballot operation during the 2020 election. Freeman, her
mother, was a temporary election worker, verifying signatures on absentee
ballots and preparing them to be counted and processed.

When their names circulated online along with allegations that they had engaged
in fraud, the two women said they were subjected to intense harassment, both in
person and online.
