Fox and the Big Lie

Fox News has abruptly agreed to pay more than $AU1 billion over allegations it promoted misinformation about the 2020 US election.
It's one of the highest publicly known defamation settlements in US history.
The settlement with election technology company Dominion Voting Systems was the latest twist in an extraordinary case that has exposed the inner workings of the powerful Murdoch-owned conservative news network. Dominion, in addition to the huge payout, heard a statement from Fox News that "certain claims" it made about the company were not true.
This case is just one of many launched against Fox and its friends.
Two years ago, reporter Sarah Ferguson investigated how Rupert Murdoch's Fox News promoted Donald Trump's propaganda and helped destabilise democracy in America.
In light of the Dominion settlement, this week 4Corners will re-air that special investigation (updated), including the next big case against Fox brought by a second voting-machine company.
