Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott warned colleagues not to 'give the crazies an inch' after the 2020 elections. Dominion Voting Systems revealed her words in its $1.6 billion defamation suit against Fox.
Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott, shown at a 2014 event in New York City, warned colleagues not to"give the crazies an inch" after pressure rose from supporters of then President Trump. Lawyers for Dominion Voting Systems indicate they to use Scott's words against Fox in its $1.6 billion defamation suit against the network.
That's according to the account of a lawyer for Dominion Voting Systems, which is seeking $1.6 billion from Fox in a defamation suit over false allegations on the network that the company committed election fraud. A trial date is set for April in Delaware. For days after the election, Trump and his top aides demanded the network rescind its announcement of Biden's victory in Arizona, even pressuring the network's controlling owners, Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch. In the weeks that followed, a cadre of Fox News stars hosted Trump's advisers - and even Trump himself - to peddle baseless conspiracy theories of election fraud.
Fox's attorney, Justin Keller, did not dispute the remarks attributed by Nelson to Fox News CEO Scott. Nor did he deny that executives sought to intervene in the two programs' efforts to book Powell and Giuliani even though their claims had been discredited. Instead, he made a broader argument against allowing scrutiny of the executives' contracts, saying that was unnecessary given how many documents the network has already turned over to Dominion.
Beyond Scott, the executives whose contracts are being sought include Jay Wallace, Fox News' president and executive editor, and Meade Cooper, the executive vice president of primetime programming. "Fox sought to profit off a lie. That's the allegation," Judge Davis summarized."Whether that's true or not, we'll stay for the trial.", journalists Peter Baker and Susan Glasser reveal that Fox anchor Bret Baier cited intense pressure from Trump's team to explore whether and under what circumstances the Arizona call could be reversed. Fox did not withdraw its projection.
