8. Well...

That would probably work. However, because Spews Corp and Fox Entertainment are separate entities...and going to stay that way...I don't know that they could ever collect from Fox Entertainment.

Ending the re-integration of the two was, IMO, likely to prevent a huge loss in profits and stock price of the newly combined Fox, from any adverse judgements in the defamation case(s). Smart move by Murdoch, but I'd rather see his ass bankrupted and begging for money on a street corner for all the damage he's done to liberal democracy in the US, UK and AU. Fuck him.
