The ongoing legal battle between Fox News and Smartmatic and Dominion.
Fox News still faces a $2.7 billion defamation lawsuit from Smartmatic, a voting technology company, despite settling a similar lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems for $787.5 million. Smartmatic alleges that Fox News knowingly made over 100 false statements about the company, amplifying false information from former President Donald Trump and his allies that Smartmatic played a role in his election loss. The lawsuit also named Fox’s on-air hosts Maria Bartiromo, Lou Dobbs, and Jeanine Pirro, as well as former Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell. Smartmatic remains committed to clearing its name and holding Fox accountable for undermining democracy.
