Dominion Voting Systems files $1.6 billion lawsuit against Fox News for 'orchestrated defamatory campaign'
Dominion Voting Systems, a voting technology company that was the target of baseless conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, filed a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against the right-wing channel Fox News on Friday.
The company alleged that the network "recklessly disregarded the truth" and participated in a disinformation campaign against it because "the lies were good for Fox's business."
In the immediate aftermath of the 2020 election, then-President Donald Trump falsely asserted that the election had been rigged against him. His allies promoted outlandish conspiracy theories about Dominion to support Trump's false claims.
"Fox took a small flame" of disinformation and "turned it into a forest fire," Dominion said in its lawsuit.
"The truth matters. Lies have consequences," Dominion's lawsuit added. "Fox sold a false story of election fraud in order to serve its own commercial purposes, severely injuring Dominion in the process. If this case does not rise to the level of defamation by a broadcaster, then nothing does."
Dominion said that as a result of Fox's "orchestrated defamatory campaign" it had suffered "enormous and irreparable economic harm" and that its employees had been subject to death threats.
A spokesperson for Fox said the network was "proud" of its 2020 election coverage, describing it as standing "in the highest tradition of American journalism." The spokesperson added that Fox will "vigorously defend against this baseless lawsuit in court."
Dominion is the second election technology company to file a lawsuit against Fox. Smartmatic sued Fox for $2.7 billion in February, making similar allegations against the network. Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell and individual Fox hosts were named in that suit in addition to the network. Fox called the suit "meritless," vowed to "vigorously defend" itself in court, and filed a motion to have the suit dismissed.
Government officials and independent experts repeatedly said after the November election that there was no evidence of significant widespread fraud. Nevertheless, Fox's top shows repeatedly suggested that Trump's claims had merit.
In its lawsuit, Dominion specifically mentioned hosts Maria Bartiromo, Tucker Carlson, Lou Dobbs, Sean Hannity, and Jeanine Pirro, three of whom were named as defendants in Smartmatic's lawsuit. Fox is the sole defendant in this suit.
Fox eventually aired an unusual point-by-point fact check last year, debunking some of the wild election fraud claims made on the network. That package aired after Smartmatic sent Fox a legal threat.

Giáo chủ hôm trước bị Chris Wallace sửa lưng nên đâm ra hận Fox News. Đám cuồng thấy vậy cũng hùa theo tẩy chay đài này. Đã ế rồi lại còn thêm 1.6 tỷ đô bồi thường cho hãng Dominion thì Fox News chỉ còn nước sập tiệm. Ha ha ha...

Dominion filing $1.7 billion lawsuit against OAN, with focus on Arizona's election audit
https://www.12news.com/article/news/politics/dominion-filing-1-billion-lawsuit-against-oan-others-for-promoting-lies-of-election-fraud/75-48208545-0b70-455a-9504-979cb2e85968
"OAN helped create and cultivate an alternate reality where up is down, pigs have wings," the company's lawsuit said.
ARIZONA, USA — Dominion Voting Systems is seeking $1.7 billion in damages and is targeting media company One America News Network (OAN) and its associates for spreading debunked claims of election fraud.
Dominion's lawsuit says that OAN "manufactured, endorsed, repeated, and broadcast a series of verifiably false yet devastating lies about Dominion."
Arizona is specifically mentioned 74 times in the lawsuit, with a focus on the state's Senate GOP's recount of the 2020 election.
The lawsuit takes issue with the fact that Cristina Bobb, a host for OAN, launched a campaign to raise money for Arizona's "sham audit." The lawsuit also lists OAN being given exclusive media rights for the recount as another issue.
"OAN’s Christina Bobb...crossed journalism ethical lines and raised funds for the sham audit," the lawsuit said.
"These efforts resulted in a sham “audit” of the 2020 Presidential Election in Maricopa County, Arizona, generating additional fodder for OAN to use in its defamatory campaign against Dominion—with OAN given the exclusive right to broadcast the proceedings."
The lawsuit listed the defendants as:
Christina Bobb, OAN Show Host
Herring Networks Inc., the owning company of OAN
Charles Herring, Herring Networks President
Robert Herring Sr., Herring Networks CEO
Chanel Rion, OAN White House Correspondent
Dominion also mentioned other subjects in the lawsuit that spread debunked election claims including Fox News, Sidney Powell, Rudy Giuliani, and Mike Lindell. Dominion also has ongoing lawsuits with these individuals seeking damages for the same reasons.
