Dominion starts serving lawsuits

Does Fox News have the money to pay this off?

Yes. It is part of NewsCorp after all. A better question would be if FOX loses this case, does Rupert still think it is an asset worth keeping or does it go the same way as News of the World (remember them)?
 
Tucker bringing up election denial lies as part of his support for Jan 6 lies probably isn’t helping their case.

Fox News AND Fox Corp are both being sued. Faux Noise is an LLC, but that being so, won't save Fox Corp. The lawsuits of Dominion and Smartmatic don't stop with Fox News alone.
 
Mike Lindell and Rudy Guiliani are also being sued by Dominion. I can't find with Google who else is personally being sued. But if Hannity, Carlson and other purveyors of lies on air now have been demonstrated to have knowingly lied about Dominion, there just might be more suits in the offing.
 
It is hard to find out via Google just who is being sued by Dominion and Smartmatic. Add to Dominion suits, Sydney Powell. Smartmatic is suing Fox News, Guiliani, Powell, Lindell and Maria Bartilomo and Lou Dobbs. Smartmatic is also suing Lindell's company.

Eric Coomer, a Dominion employee is suing the Trump Organization, several of its lawyers, Powell, Guiliani, OANN, Newsmax, Gateway Pundit, Michelle Malkin, and right winged activist Joseph Oltmann.

Coomer has been claimed to be the Dominion employee that engineered the Dominion vote theft resulting in Biden being declared the winner of the presidential election.
This list may not be comprehensive. Possibly more lawsuits to follow.

We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights. I truly can’t wait. I hate him passionately. ... I can’t handle much more of this.

We’re all pretending we’ve got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it’s been is too tough to digest. But come on. There isn’t really an upside to Trump.

And people are still watching this whore.
 
Smartmatic gets a green light to sue Faux Noise in a court of law.
And you were wondering, "What ever happen to the Smartmatic lawsuits‽". They are now getting underway.

.....
A defamation lawsuit against Fox News by voting machine company Smartmatic appears to be headed to trial after the New York Supreme Court gave the green light last week. An analysis by The Guardian found that the $2.7 billion lawsuit could be "more dangerous" than the $1.6 billion lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems. In both cases, Fox News personalities are accused of falsely claiming President Joe Biden won the election because of a voting machine conspiracy.

Justice David Cohen of New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan rejected bids by Fox Corp. (FOXA.O), anchor Maria Bartiromo, and former anchor Lou Dobbs to dismiss Smartmatic's claims against them. Cohen also said Smartmatic can pursue some claims against lawyer Rudy Giuliani. The court also denied Fox’s motion to stay discovery.

Smartmatic is also suing Mike Lindell.

Tucker Carlson producer called Trump election deniers ‘cousin f***** terrorists’

‘The only clear cut evidence for voter fraud is the failed attempts from Trump,’ Fox executive writes
www.independent.co.uk www.independent.co.uk
More than a million pages of internal Fox messages have revealed that a producer for Fox News host Tucker Carlson said that dealing with criticism from those sceptical of the election results was like “negotiating” with “especially dumb” “terrorists” who sleep with their cousins.

The files released in connection to the $1.6bn defamation lawsuit against the company by Dominion Voting Systems also revealed that Fox Corporation executive Raj Shah, who had served as a spokesman in the Trump White House before making the jump, blasted the then-president’s personal lawyer and ex-New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani as he spoke at the headquarters of the Republican National Committee on 19 November 2020.


Mr Giuliani seemingly had black hair dye running down the side of his face as he made increasingly ludicrous claims of election fraud.


“This sounds SO F****** CRAZY btw,” Mr Shah wrote during the diatribe, a few weeks after the 2020 election.

“Rudy looks awful,” one person responded to Mr Shah.

“He objectively looks like he was a dead person voting 2 weeks ago,” Mr Shah said. One of the false claims made about the election was that dead voters had helped President Joe Biden win.

But when a Fox reporter soon after went on air and said some of what Mr Giuliani had said was “simply not true,” Mr Shah said, “this is the kinda s*** that will kill us”.

After Carlson had publically rebuked some of the outlandish claims pushed by lawyer Sydney Powell, which prompted pushback from her and other rightwing figures, Mr Shah texted a producer for Mr Carlson about finding a middle ground and possibly taking time on the show to address her baseless claim that she had an affidavit linking Dominion and Venezuela.


“Might wanna address this, but this stuff is so f****** insane. Vote rigging to the tune of millions? C’mon,” he wrote.

Alex Pfeiffer, a producer working for Mr Carlson at the time but who has now left Fox, wrote back that “it is so insane but our viewers believe it so addressing again how her stupid Venezuela affidavit isn’t proof might insult them”.


Mr Shah suggested that Carlson mention the affidavit, saying it was “not new info, not proof” and then “pivot to being deferential”.

Mr Pfeiffer later added: “One funny thing. Dominion was used in Ohio and Florida. Trump won them. Did they forget to rig those or all part of the plan?”

“The machine companies continue to sue us for billions of dollars, and we had to borrow almost $10 million at MyPillow,” Lindell told far-right radio host and former Trump advisor Steve Bannon on Wednesday.

Who the hell loaned the MyBankruptcy guy that much money and at what interest rate? Meh. Maybe that's what the physical assets are worth.
