Summary
Dominion and Fox have released hundreds of pages of evidence in Dominion's $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News parent. The evidence includes communications from Fox Chairman Rupert Murdoch questioning whether TV network hosts "went too far" and Fox News host Tucker Carlson saying he "hates" former President Donald Trump. The lawsuit alleges that Fox and its right-wing cable TV channels and talent falsely claimed that Dominion's voting machines rigged the results of the 2020 election. The case is being closely watched by First Amendment watchdogs and is set to go to trial in mid-April.
