Dominion has accused Murdoch of pushing Fox News to spread baseless claims about election fraud despite knowing they were false.

Dominion has also brought a separate case against the [Fox Corporation](https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2021/11/11/did-murdochs-push-election-fraud-claims-dominion-sues-fox-corp-to-find-out/?sh=33efcddb4f94) directly that focuses on Rupert and son Lachlan Murdoch’s alleged involvement in pushing election fraud claims on Fox News, which is also now pending after a court [rejected](https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2022/06/21/dominions-defamation-lawsuit-against-fox---including-murdochs---over-2020-election-can-move-forward-judge-rules/?sh=5450735928e2) Fox’s motion to dismiss the case in June. A Dominion attorney also alleged a Fox Corporation executive had pushed the White House to stop having Powell advise Trump, calling her claims “outlandish.” Dominion argued this was further evidence that Fox Corp, which Murdoch controls, knew the fraud claims were false but had Fox News push them anyway. Dominion’s Fox News lawsuit alleges that even though Murdoch did not personally believe there was widespread election fraud, he was swayed by his personal relationship with Trump and the effect of pushing false election claims on Fox News’ ratings to “nevertheless [encourage] on-air personalities to perpetuate these baseless claims.” The lawsuit alleges Murdoch exerted direct influence over Fox’s programming in the aftermath of the 2020 election, citing [media reports](https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/media/fox-news-is-a-hazard-to-our-democracy-its-time-to-take-the-fight-to-the-murdochs-heres-how/2021/01/22/1821f186-5cbe-11eb-b8bd-ee36b1cd18bf_story.html.) from the time that claimed Murdoch had “stepped in to call the shots directly” at the network amid a ratings decline. Murdoch marks the most major figure to be deposed thus far in the months-long discovery process leading up to the case’s trial, though Dominion has asked a number of the network’s highest-ranking personalities and officials to testify in court. Powell told Maria Bartiromo there was “a massive and coordinated effort to steal this election” and “manufacture votes for Joe Biden,” told Sean Hannity the company “ran an algorithm that shaved off votes from then-President Donald Trump and awarded them to Biden” and claimed to Lou Dobbs that Trump’s “lead was so great … "We are confident we will prevail as freedom of the press is foundational to our democracy and must be protected, in addition to the damages claims being outrageous, unsupported and not rooted in sound financial analysis, serving as nothing more than a flagrant attempt to deter our journalists from doing their jobs,” the network said in a statement to Forbes Tuesday. chair was initially slated to be deposed in December via video call, but his testimony was delayed until this week and will now Dominion’s attorneys said during the hearing that Hannity testified he “did not believe [Powell’s fraud claims] for one second,” and alleged Carlson also doubted the fraud claims, along with Fox News exec Meade Cooper. Court records in the case indicate proceedings have become contentious in recent months, as both Dominion and Fox News have asked the court to issue sanctions against the other for allegedly destroying evidence. Dominion alleged that evidence was spoiled by Fox figures including Hannity, Ingraham and Scott, though the full request for sanctions is confidential, so it’s unclear what that evidence may have entailed. Fox also faces a separate defamation News Corp.

The voting-machine company is seeking $1.6 billion in damages in a trial expected to start in April.

Its attorneys have focused a good deal of its discovery on trying to obtain emails and other office communications to show what news personnel were aware of at the time. Fox News claims that electronic messages of senior Dominion executives were spoiled.

In a statement, a Dominion spokesperson said, “From the highest levels down, Fox knowingly spread lies about Dominion, causing enormous and irreparable damage. Instead of acting responsibly and showing remorse, Fox instead has doubled down by publicly stating that they are proud of their Dominion-related coverage. More specifically, Dominion has pointed to statements made by Bartiromo and Lou Dobbs, both of whom featured guests such as attorney Sidney Powell.
