Fox News headed for trial, again, over 2020 election fraud claims
Briefly

The New York Supreme Court upheld Smartmatic's lawsuit against Fox, emphasizing the network's prior knowledge of false claims regarding election fraud, solidifying accountability for their defamation campaign.
Internal communications revealed that Fox executives, including Rupert Murdoch, were aware that Joe Biden had won the election fairly, yet promoted false narratives to retain viewers.
Pro-Trump hosts on Fox, such as Maria Bartiromo and Lou Dobbs, not only invited guests who made unsubstantiated claims about Smartmatic but also appeared to endorse these allegations.
Smartmatic's lead attorney remarked, "Today, the New York Supreme Court rebuffed Fox Corporation's latest attempt to escape responsibility for the defamation campaign it orchestrated against Smartmatic."
