TL;DR Summary

Dominion Voting Systems' $1.6 billion defamation trial against Fox News over election lies begins in Delaware, with the potential for one of the largest defamation defeats ever for a US media outlet. The trial will expose Fox's election denialism and the toxic role of its disinformation on American politics.

Fox News has contended it did nothing wrong, but the trial promises to be an agonizing affair for the network.
