TL;DR Summary

A judge has sanctioned Fox News in the $1.6bn defamation lawsuit by Dominion Voting Systems, after the network withheld evidence until the eve of the trial. The judge has given Dominion a fresh chance to gather evidence and may appoint an outside investigator to probe Fox's late disclosure of evidence. Fox News and parent company Fox Corp are accused of airing false claims by former President Donald Trump and his lawyers that Dominion's voting machines were used to rig the outcome of the 2020 election. Jury selection is set to begin in the case on Thursday.
