Rupert Murdoch—and his son, Lachlan Murdoch—may be forced to testify in Dominion Voting Systems’ $1.6 billion defamation suit.
“Dominion clearly wants to continue generating misleading stories from their friends in the media to distract from their weak case. Demanding witnesses who had nothing to do with the challenged broadcasts is just the latest example of their political crusade in search of a financial windfall," Fox said in a statement.
Dominion is suing Fox over its 2020 election coverage, when the network amplified election lies pushed byand his allies. Dominion has claimed that Fox News knowingly spread false information about the company for the sake of juicing ratings and profits, while Fox has argued that its coverage is protected by free speech and press freedom rights, and that it was just neutrally reporting on newsworthy claims by a sitting president.
To win their case, Dominion has to prove that Fox acted with actual malice—meaning that the network knew the claims it was making about Dominion were false and aired them anyway, or that it acted with a reckless disregard for the truth. There is a historically high bar for meeting such a legal standard. Still, Davis has made clear that he believes the evidence presented in the case has been strong enough to merit a jury's review.
