Fox News faces legal and journalistic crisis in Dominion defamation case.

TL;DR Summary
Jury selection has begun in Dominion Voting Systems' $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News, which accuses the network of knowingly pushing false conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election. Dominion will have to prove "actual malice" to win the case. The trial is expected to last five to six weeks and will see live testimony from some of Fox's biggest stars and executives. Pretrial hearings resulted in unexpected setbacks for Fox News, including a sanction and the possibility of a special master investigation into whether representations made by Fox were "untrue or negligent."
