Should the AP write '. . . and the lies the network helped spread about the 2020 presidential election'. It seems to me the AP is stating fact that has not evidence to support. Get back to real journalism.

Pretty sure Bragg is up tomorrow.

how many CIA at AP?

Dominion is voting fraud

A major law suit. The only hope to pause this degenerate outlet's quest to dangerously divide the country and reap billions in the process.

Yea because you are so Truthful. We know you support democrats and are part of the lie. Explain that. I am sure whatever excuse you come up with will be another lie.

Too bad there isn't a lawsuit against the other networks that lie on a daily basis.

There were 0 lies, just people expressing opinions with limited knowledge. Barr said he investig matter and there was no fraud. Now he admits he lied, there was NO investig. We also know FBI/BigT collusion affected 18% of Biden vote, more than enough to change outcome. AP hogwash

Even if Fox loses (which they goddamn better) I doubt it will make a difference to their audience. The crowd most susceptible to the lies at the heart of this blow off things they don’t like as main stream media lies, heck to them this whole case is fraudulent.

It'll be interesting watching FOX hosts take the stand being forced to admit they lied then watching them go on their shows and do damage control.

News and lies in the same headline, hmmm

The liars should pay up and be forced to read an apology daily every hour. 24/7 admitting they lied

You saying they lied about the 2020 election is a lie itself. 😊

Funny the emphasis you put on this story to suit a narrative protecting fraudulent elections. Considering all news outlets are liars and should be held accountable ASAP.

Stop calling them news.

Always knew Fox news was faux news and their viewers don't care...they love the lies

Lies? Like Russian collusion and how Putin stole the election from Hillary?

You could say that if fox News was actually press but they are not! The press is accountable for reporting accurate information, this has nothing to do with press freedom! Shame on you

The average fox listener doesn’t even care if they’re being lied to. As long as they get their little ego boost because they’re not amongst the evil Democrats, they will keep chugging the Kool-Aid.

The case is not about press freedom, it will seek to determine whether Fox acted maliciously after the judge made a finding of fact that they broadcast lies.

This will open the doors to many more suits against news media that spread Fake News. Going to be great for the public as we yes can all start bringing lawsuits against MSM.

This is going to be great! Can’t wait to see Murdoch throw seanhannity and TuckerCarlson under the bus! No doubt there will be other liars to replace them… JesseBWatters has been on a streak lately

Fake news at its best

When will the rest of the media be put on trial?

AP is full of it.

_Politics did you vote in the 2020 general election? can you prove it?

Well Fox News is screwed.

I wonder how concerns with ballot harvesting claims will be managed? I hear many countries don’t allow this because of these concerns.

It's Time the news channels revert black to news and analysis, not opinions and biased reporting depending on the side you're on

BIASED LIBERAL NEW YORKERS … stop the nonsense…

So we're not doing Democrats lying about Russian disinformation? Hilary and all of her mouthpieces telling everyone that the election was stolen from her? Nothing like that?

Prove the claims were false or you are getting sued too AP.

False claims? Uh, no. The irony is that it WAS stolen although not known at the time. FBI/BigT collusion in suppressing Hunter LT affected up to 18% of Biden vote, more than enough to change outcome.

Soon we will see another:

Weird. One of your other posts says Fox will face a jury for their 'election lies' So should we put you down as ' they are already guilty'? JournalismIsDead

The only reason they would be trying to get a legal opinion on this is if they knew it was true. Otherwise the would have said “ignore it and it will fade away.” Yet the libs are parading this around. “”….doth protest to much..”

They can win the case, doesn't change what we know is True.

If you studied history you know you have no business believing in a free press or a legitimate election post the 1880s when Hurst bought up papers And politicians.

Yes, the head off Fox News even said they were false smh

They would have to prove it. Are they going to do an audit? 😂 😂 Bc that might not work out well for the plaintiff.

Remember when using the word “claim” was a way for media outlets to avoid sounding biased af? Using the phrase “false claim” nullifies that. AP should be better than this.

Dominion Voting Systems -- WHAT is it ? / WHY is it ? ''An electoral system or --voting system-- is a set of rules that determine how elections and referendums are conducted and how their results are determined.''

The media hiding the facts about the Hunter Biden laptop , claiming it was Russian disinformation, that didn't impact the election? Polls say it did, Trump would have won if the facts were known ! Shame on the media !!

False claim? Future generations will not agree with you.

rhonda_harbison I hope this is the beginning of the end for this criminal network!

This trial should be televised so ALL can see their lies! So ALL can witness their shame… 👀👀

This trial will be great. With having most of Fox News cell and text records you get to see exactly how they really felt …epic

-- Dominion Voting Systems -- WILL soon be history. Dominion's democrat handlers and mules won't be able to get away with vote-rigging, as easily, anymore.

'False'

This is happy news.

All I know 81 million people didn't vote for this 💩 Forget Dominion. We all saw the ballot box stuffing. Hidden suitcases of ballots being pulled from under tables. Pallets of newly found ballots being delivered in the early morning etc. All in swing states. Biden was installed.

Perhaps the data that no judge in America had the guts to hear will finally be published. And who ordered the vote counting in the swing states to stop on election night? Who was that exactly?

I can't wait till FOX has to pay up. Tucker Carlson should be fired.

Spend more time on citizens

Now do Russiagate AND Covid with all the other networks

True claims

Did I miss the trial for the media pushing the false claim that Trump colluded with Russia to win in 2016?

This attempt to squelch freedom of the press in the name of accuracy is disturbing and dangerous. Wow!

The media colluded with the Biden campaign to support it as much as possible, including hiding information that could have impacted it negatively. But yeah I guess that's not stealing, but it's cheating. 🤷‍♀️

🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥

Good. Rupert Murdoch has destroyed this country with a network that spews lies and venom continuously. I hope they get billions. DominionLawsuit

It was

We all know Trump WON!

Is it being broadcasted live, anyone know?

And all over amplifying a conman's BS...

Not false when media, big tech hid truths that changed outcome.

False claims?

Funny how they're still trying SO hard to convince people that the election was legit. 99% of Americans moved on from this crap 2 years ago. Not to mention how ridiculously difficult it is to prove intent. Can we say more distraction

Now do CNN and Russiagate or MSNBC and literally everything that spews of of their mouths.

No other company deserves what's coming their way more than Fox.
