Fox Corp chairperson Rupert Murdoch is set to be questioned under oath on Tuesday in a defamation lawsuit over his network’s coverage of unfounded vote-rigging claims during the 2020 US presidential election.

Election technology company Dominion Voting Systems is seeking $1.6bn in damages from Fox News Network, which it alleges spread false claims that its machines were used to rig the 2020 election against Republican incumbent Donald Trump and in favor of the Democratic victor Joe Biden.

A defamation lawyer who has followed the litigation, Doug Mirell, said he believes Dominion has an “air-tight” case for actual malice because Fox hosts pressed forward with vote-rigging allegations “well after it was quite clear that these claims were demonstrably false”.
