Fox News and Rupert Murdoch face potential testimony in Dominion trial.
TL;DR
Fox News has asked a judge to bar references to the January 6 insurrection at the US Capitol and threats directed at employees of Dominion Voting Systems during the $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit it faces from the election technology company. Fox argued that these references would unfairly prejudice the jury against it. Dominion disagreed, stating that the attack on the Capitol is central to almost every element of the case. The judge will address these pretrial motions next week.
