Salem Media Group has retracted the film '2,000 Mules' and issued an apology following a defamation lawsuit. The film, produced by Dinesh D'Souza, falsely depicted Mr. Andrews committing election fraud, which state investigators in Georgia have since debunked. The company stated that they relied on representations made by D'Souza and have halted distribution of both the film and the book. The retraction and apology come after the Georgia Bureau of Investigation cleared Mr. Andrews of any wrongdoing. Additionally, Salem Media apologized to election workers who were attacked in the film.
