Fox News-Dominion defamation trial delayed, set to begin this week.

The defamation trial against Fox News brought by Dominion Voting Systems has been delayed by one day, with speculation of potential settlement talks. The trial, which could have significant ramifications for the right-wing cable channel, alleges that Fox News repeatedly promoted false claims about Dominion's voting machines rigging the 2020 election. Dominion is seeking $1.6 billion in damages and must convince the jury that Fox acted with "actual malice." If the trial happens as planned, Dominion has the power to force Rupert Murdoch to testify in-person.
