Factual accuracyBefore “Settlement ends Delaware trial on its first day; Fox acknowledges rulings that claims were false.”
After “Settlement reached before opening statements; Fox acknowledges rulings that claims were false.”
Why: The trial's jury was selected and sworn in on April 17, 2023, and opening statements (originally also scheduled for April 17) were pushed to April 18 by the judge to allow for settlement talks; the settlement was reached on April 18, which was the second day of proceedings, not the first. The cited NBC News source supports only that the settlement came 'after a jury had been sworn in and before opening statements,' not that it was the trial's first day. The one-line summary's 'first day' framing is not supported by the sources and should be corrected to match the more precise phrasing used in the body text.
