Dinesh D’Souza election fraud film, book ’2000 Mules’ pulled after defamation suit; CNBC, May 31, 2024

Christina Wilkie , CNBC; Dinesh D’Souza election fraud film, book ’2000 Mules’ pulled after defamation suit

"The conservative gadfly Dinesh D’Souza’s film and book “2000 Mules,” which pushes false conspiracies about voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election, has been removed from distribution by its executive producer and publisher, according to an announcement Friday.

Salem Media Group has announcement that it had yanked D’Souza’s film and book also apologized to Mark Andrews, a Georgia man falsely accused in “2000 Mules” of ballot stuffing.

Andrews in late 2022 filed a federal defamation lawsuit against the company, D’Souza, and the non-profit advocacy group True The Vote, which contributed to the “2000 Mules’ project."
