Dominion vs. Fox News: The Truth on Trial
TL;DR
Dominion, a voting equipment company, is suing Fox News and its parent company Fox Corporation for defamation, seeking at least $1.6bn it says it is due to cover the reputational damage it suffered as a result of Fox’s lies about the 2020 presidential election. The trial is seen as one of the strongest opportunities for holding Fox and its CEO, Rupert Murdoch, accountable for its lies. The case is unusual because Dominion’s case is so strong, and the evidence they have produced offers as close to smoking-gun evidence as one can get. The trial is set to begin on Monday in Wilmington, Delaware, where Fox is incorporated.
