Lachlan Murdoch drops defamation suit against Crikey after Dominion settlement.

Lachlan Murdoch, CEO of Fox Corporation, has dropped his defamation lawsuit against Australian news and commentary site Crikey after it called him an "unindicted co-conspirator" in the January 6 attack. Murdoch's decision comes after Fox News settled a defamation case with Dominion Voting Systems for $787 million and another settlement with a Venezuelan businessman. Crikey had explored admitting some of the revelations from the Dominion lawsuit as evidence in its own case. Private Media, Crikey's publisher, called the retreat "a substantial victory for legitimate public interest journalism."
