The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors approved a historic settlement with The Gateway Pundit on Wednesday. Maricopa County officials signed off on a major First Amendment lawsuit and settlement with TGP Communications, LLC, the parent company of The Gateway Pundit news website.
Yvonne Wingett Sanchez from the Washington Post broke the news publicly on Tuesday afternoon.
The Board of Supervisors met Wednesday and approved the settlement.
Facts Behind This Historic Case:
Maricopa County officials sought to prevent TGP reporter Jordan Conradson from attending briefings following the 2020 midterm elections. Jordan is widely regarded as the most fearless and honest reporter in the state of Arizona. Maricopa County claimed The Gateway Pundit’s coverage was not reputable after TGP and Conradson had forced a county official from office through our previous exclusive reporting.
County officials were terrified of Jordan and TGP and attempted to block our outlet from public press gatherings.
