Ruling by Judge today on the summary judgment motions in the Dominion v Fox News case.
1) Fox Corp and Fox News' motions for summary judgment to dismiss the case have been denied.
2) Dominion's motion for summary judgment is granted in part and denied in part.

Specifically, the judge has ruled that Dominion was in fact defamed - Fox made statements of fact, and not opinion, that were defamatory.

However, he is leaving up to jury trial whether there was actual malice in the defamatory statements, and whether Fox Corporation (parent of Fox News) is responsible/liable for those defamatory statements

(edit: and whether there were in fact damages to Dominion, and the amount of such damages, also left to civil jury trial)
I'd cream my pants if the jury turns out to be all closeted ultra liberals who vote against fox. and their appeals get denied.

Putting this hear since a lot of Fox playing GOP propagandist are here. Listening to Fox today just to see how they are handling 3 damning stories this week.

Clarence Thomas not declaring lavish gifts
Black legislators being evicted in Tennessee for decorum violations
TX judge banning abortion drug nation wide.

So far the answer is not to talk about them and get back to trashing Joe Biden with completely misleading assertions. Ex: During Covid Biden upended to political process with mail in ballots. The real story mail in ballots were a way to allow voting during......wait for it......a deadly pandemic where you did not want to crowd a bunch of people indoors together and cause more deaths and spread. But why let truth get in the way of a good made up story.

I'll try to give it a little while longer.

Seems like a pointless post; the problem is that Fox has gone from right leaning to right propaganda; so of course they are not only going to cherry pick what they report; they will also fabricate where necessary. This is the primary difference between right and left leaning networks; nbc for example emphasis the negative of the right but they don't actually fabricate; of course the right is so far off their rockers they don't have to fabricate...
--
While this is mostly not illegal (except where they defame a corporate entity); it is not healthy for USA (of course they are more interested in $$$$$ than the health of USA); and it is esp worse on the right since a greater percentage of folk son the right are gullible.

Curiosity got the best of me. I lasted another 10 minutes when I heard Franklin Graham told that audience the greatest threat to their kids is gender talk in schools. That happens to be a complete lie when we know gunds are the #1 killer of children.

Or perhaps it reveals an even darker side of those people. They would rather sacrifice the lives of their kids rather than learn about gender. I'm not saying teach gender in elementary school but just acknowledge the existence.

The judge ruled they can't reference the January 6 insurrection. I don't remember where I read it, let me find the link…

Yeah but they got SUED, which means they failed their fiduciary duty to investors, which is what the claim is about.

Yes, but the suit might fail if Fox Corp's earnings have not declined since. As of their last quarter:

The Company reported quarterly net income of $321 million as compared to a net loss of $73 million reported in the prior year quarter.


Perhaps the decline in earnings is whatever they have to pay out in the underlying lawsuits.

What happens if Fox goes to court and says we have always lied. It has been their business model for decades now .

But I don’t care what the outcome is I want to see this shitshow

Probably the same reason they likely can't bring up any other lies they promoted like birtherism. Not germane to the case.

This is why if they are found guilty on this case the capital police should sue them next. A straight line can be drawn from the election lies to Jan 6

No, Dominion can't bring up J6.

Hiding shit in discovery is kinda bad isnt it? A little bit?
The judge is not happy.


Justin Nelson, an attorney for Dominion, alleged on Tuesday that Fox News withheld information that would have allowed the voting machine company to obtain more of Murdoch's communications in the lawsuit, according to The Washington Post.

Nelson told Judge Eric Davis that the company was led to believe that Murdoch was only an officer at Fox News' parent company, Fox Corp., but in recent days the company learned that he also has an officer title at Fox News.

"This alone has meant that we are missing a whole bunch of Rupert Murdoch documents that we otherwise would have been entitled to," Nelson said. "It's very troubling that this is where we are. It's something that has really affected how we have litigated this case."
