★★★★☆Fuckup rating 4/5 Serious fuckup

Dominion Voting Systems filed a defamation lawsuit against Fox News on March 26, 2021, seeking more than $1.6 billion over broadcasts that repeated false claims about the 2020 election. The complaint said Fox hosts and guests aired the allegations even after they had been publicly rejected, and it accused some Fox personnel of privately doubting them while the claims stayed on air.
