Fox News and its parent company, Fox Corporation, are currently the subjects of a $1.6bn defamation lawsuit, alleging they deliberately pushed false claims about the Colorado-based company Dominion Voting Systems and its role in the 2020 presidential election.
Opening statements in the case are set to start on Tuesday after a one-day delay in the US state of Delaware. Dominion is seeking damages for harm caused to its reputation and business, after Fox aired false allegations that the voting machine company was involved in widespread election fraud.
