Since when does Fox News cared about President Joe Biden taking Air Force One to Delaware?
The freaking President of the United States will not be driving himself to Wilmington, Delaware.
He will not be taking a commercial airline to the state. He is vaccinated and will follow CDC guidelines when he arrives in the state. Besides, he won't be golfing or watching cable news all day.
Matter of fact, Fox News will probably complain about the fact he goes to Sunday mass.
Geez, is this what we are going to expect from Rupert Murdoch's trash bin of misinformation?
It looks like Fox News is facing a handful of lawsuits after the network pushed misinformation about the election.
Two voting companies are not only suing Fox News but its host Lou Dobbs, Jeanine Pirro, Maria Bartiromo and former president Donald J. Trump's lawyers Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell.
Smartmatic and Dominion Voting Systems have filed lawsuits in U.S. federal court.
The voting technology company Smartmatic was thrown into the baseless conspiracies thrown by Fox News (Fox Business) and Trump's allies in his failed legal fight to overturn the U.S. presidential election.
Better cough up some money, honey. Maria Bartiromo faces a hefty lawsuit. |
The lawsuit is calling for $2.7 billion in damages. They are urging the federal court to subpoena Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and the far-right platforms Gab and Parler to retain their data in which Smartmatic could use against these agitators.
"We have no choice," said Antonio Mugica, the chief executive and founder of Smartmatic. "The disinformation campaign that was launched against us is an obliterating one. For us, this is existential, and have to take action."
The lawsuit goes at Fox Corp, the company that owns Fox News as well as its primetime hosts for intentionally lying about the company in an effort to mislead the public into the false belief that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump.
"[Fox News and Fox Business] needed a villain," the lawsuit said. "They needed someone to blame. They needed someone whom they could get others to hate. A story of good versus evil, the type that would incite an angry mob, only works if the storyteller provides the audience with someone who personifies evil."
"Without any true villain, defendants invented one," the lawsuit added. "Defendants decided to make Smartmatic the villain in their story."
Fox reacted to the lawsuit with two things.
Lou Dobbs takes the biggest hit. |
The termination of Lou Dobbs.... more on that later.
An upright denial of the lawsuit and hopes they can prove that meritless claims are going to be dismissed.
"Fox News Media is committed to providing the full context of every story with in-depth reporting and clear opinion. We are proud of our 2020 election coverage and will vigorously defend this meritless lawsuit in court."
Powell on her part said that she was unaware of the lawsuit.
Smartmatic has filed a $2 billion lawsuit against Fox News and Trump's former attorneys. |
"I have not received notice or a copy of this alleged lawsuit. However, your characterization of the claims show that this is just another political maneuver motivated by the radical left that has no basis in fact or law."
Giuliani, who is under federal watch for his ties to Ukraine and the Borat movie scene in which he attempted to undress in front of a decoy (played by Maria Bakalova) who portrayed herself as a 15-year old. He is upright denying the lawsuit and blames the left as with Powell.
"The Smartmatic lawsuit presents another golden opportunity for discovery. I look forward to litigating with them."
Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell are under fire for their baseless lies. |
Fox News has seen its ratings drop for the month of January. Trump was fumed about Fox News making the accurate decision to call Arizona. The former president had called for his supporters to watch Newsmax and OANN.
What gets me is the fact that Fox News continues to pander in conspiracies which led to the insurrection.
It's time to hold this network accountable. Fox News is responsible for the insurrection. They need to be held accountable for their actions which led to one of the worst incidents in American history.
