Investor Sues Rupert Murdoch and Fox Board Members Over Election Claims

A Fox Corp. shareholder has sued Rupert Murdoch, Lachlan Murdoch, and several members of the Fox Corp. board of directors, alleging that they violated their fiduciary duty to the company by allowing Fox News to broadcast election conspiracy theories. The lawsuit claims that the decision to promote false stolen election claims has exposed the company to public ridicule and negatively impacted the credibility of Fox News. The suit builds on the trove of internal communications, documents, and evidence made public in Dominion Voting Systems' sweeping $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News and Fox Corp.
