"Fox sold a false story of election fraud in order to serve its own commercial purposes, severely injuring Dominion in the process," according to the lawsuit filed Friday in Delaware. "If this case does not rise to the level of defamation by a broadcaster, then nothing does."

"Fox endorsed, repeated, and broadcast a series of verifiably false yet devastating lies about Dominion," the complaint says, including claims that the company's software manipulated the results of the 2020 vote.

In response, Fox News issued a statement Friday morning stating that it "is proud of our 2020 election coverage, which stands in the highest tradition of American journalism, and will vigorously defend against this baseless lawsuit in court."

This story is so shocking that no one posted about it yesterday.

"The suit lists Fox News hosts Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Dobbs, Bartiromo and Pirro, along with their shows' producers and editors.
It also names Fox executives Suzanne Scott, Jay Wallace, Tom Lowell, Meade Cooper, John Fiedler and Lauren Petterson – along with Fox's corporate leaders, Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch."

 CNN and New York times in Washington Post also got their butt sued off for the Covington high School fiasco so I'm not shocked at all.

I thought the difference was that CNN, Washington Post and the New York times went after a private citizen whereas this is a well-known company.

Yes, CNN and NYT got sued for multi-millions, but several league experts I have seen on TV commenting on the case don't think that Nick Sandmann ultimately got that much out of it and that both organizations settled for a small amount (100K or less) just for what the nuisance value of the suit was worth to them.
