Investor Sues Murdochs and Fox Board Over Election Coverage and Dominion Claims.
TL;DR Summary
A Fox Corp shareholder has sued Chairman Rupert Murdoch and four other board members, alleging that they failed to stop Fox News from reporting falsehoods about the 2020 US presidential election that damaged its credibility and prompted lawsuits. The lawsuit seeks damages for the company from Rupert Murdoch, his son and Fox Chief Executive Lachlan Murdoch, and fellow directors Chase Carey, Roland Hernandez and Jacques Nasser. The board's failure to act on "red flags" subjected the network to defamation claims by two voting technology companies that Fox reported were involved in a conspiracy to steal the US presidential election from Trump.
