Dominion Can’t Bring Up Jan. 6 at Fox News Trial, Judge RulesA judge ruled Tuesday that lawyers for Dominion Voting Systems may not mention the Jan. 6 Capitol riot during its forthcoming defamation trial against Fox News. There’s correlation so that makes sense to me. It was a mostly peaceful protest. Like March 30. Only difference; democrats are above the law. Momof4Cats4 This is a correct ruling. The court already held the info was false. The sole remaining issue is whether fox knowingly or with reckless disregard of whether it was or wasn’t false, spewed the falsehoods. If so, damages to Dominion are determined. Everything else is immaterial.

No sh*t, Sherlock. No kidding. FOX’s on air personalities admitted to outright lying to their viewers. “Credibility problem” is putting it politely.
