The Dominion v. Fox News defamation trial raises questions about journalism ethics.
TL;DR Summary
Dominion Voting Systems is suing Fox News and its parent company Fox Corp. for $1.6 billion for defaming it in the weeks following the 2020 election and irreparably damaging its business. Fox News repeatedly broadcast baseless claims that Dominion's voting machines had flipped votes meant for then-President Donald Trump to Joe Biden. The trial, which could last up to six weeks, begins Monday in Delaware and could have long-term ramifications for all U.S. media outlets.
