TL;DR

Ray Epps, the man falsely accused by January 6 conspiracists of leading an FBI plot to orchestrate the insurrection, has demanded an on-air retraction from Fox News and Tucker Carlson for "false and defamatory statements" made about him. Epps denied working for the FBI or federal law enforcement in a private deposition with the House committee that investigated January 6. His attorney has demanded a formal retraction and on-air apology for the lies spread about Epps on the channel. The legal notice comes at a precarious time for Fox News, which is being sued for $1.6 billion in a monster defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion Voting Systems.
