Fox News executives and hosts have still not handed over records relating to a $1.6bn defamation lawsuit that accuses the network of spreading false claims that the 2020 election was rigged, according to a new court filing.
Dominion Voting Machines filed proceedings in March 2021 against Fox’s parent company alleging the network had promoted conspiracy theories about its machines being used to steal the presidential election from Donald Trump in a bid to inflate viewership. Dominion’s voting equipment was used in several key battleground states.
