Dominion Voting Systems is now reaching a decisive stage in a defamation lawsuit it has filed against Fox News and its parent company, tnyCloseRead writes.
Contested elections can have unexpected legacies. After the recount of the 2000 Presidential election results in Palm Beach County, Florida, a Canadian electrical engineer named John Poulos was struck, like most people, by what a mess it was. These were the days of the so-called Brooks Brothers riot and a Supreme Court fight that awarded Florida’s electoral votes to George W. Bush.
Among the stories that Dominion says Fox promoted was that the company was actually the brainchild of associates of Hugo Chávez—Venezuela’s demagogic leftist President, who died in 2013—and was built to steal elections. The “Venezuela lie,” as the suit refers to it, involved cash being funnelled to Dominion from Cuba and China, so that its machines could deny Trump the White House.
It’s possible to wonder whether Fox, from its central place in the Trumpist ecosystem, which was driven so much by one man’s fantasies, stopped seeing Dominion as a real company, employing real people, which could hire real lawyers. But the internal communications indicate that after Fox became the first major outlet to call Arizona for Joe Biden, many at the network became focussed on the fact that it had made Trump very angry, and might be losing viewers. Murdoch was attuned to this dynamic.
