"Fox News Faces Legal Woes and Testimony Demands from Dominion and Former Employees"

Newly released slides from a presentation by Dominion Voting Systems in its $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News and its parent company, Fox Corp, reveal that Fox's own "Brain Room" concluded that the conspiracy theories about Dominion rigging the 2020 presidential election were false, but the misinformation went on air anyway. Testimony from Fox executives underscored the importance of the Brain Room's role in verifying information that goes on air. The slides also reveal internal communications, including an email from Rupert Murdoch calling Trump's claims about the election "pretty much a crime," and an email from Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott complaining that fact-checks about election claims are "bad for business."
