In blow to Fox Corp., judge rules Smartmatic case over 2020 election lies can proceed
CNN —
The voting technology company Smartmatic can move forward with its defamation lawsuit against Fox Corporation, a New York judge ruled Wednesday, dealing a blow to the parent company of Fox News, which is already fighting the massive lawsuit over its repeated airing of 2020 election lies.
The decision from Manhattan Supreme Court Judge David Cohen represents a significant setback to Fox’s corporate leadership, including the powerful Murdoch family, who will now face more scrutiny in the litigation. Cohen already let the case proceed against Fox News — and on Wednesday, he rejected a request by Fox Corporation to throw out the claims against the parent company.
The lawsuit was filed in the wake of the 2020 election, when Fox repeatedly gave airtime to far-right figures who promoted outrageous and debunked claims that Smartmatic rigged the presidential election by flipping millions of votes from Donald Trump to Joe Biden. They did this even though on-air anchors, top producers and executives privately admitted that the election wasn’t stolen.
The judge said Smartmatic’s case was strong enough to proceed against the parent company because it has “sufficiently alleged that (Fox) Corp. employees acted with malice by purposely and deliberating publishing knowingly false stories about (Smartmatic) in order to benefit (Fox) Corp.’s financial interest.”
Smartmatic has “sufficiently alleged in their amended complaint that (Fox) Corp. employees played an affirmative role in the publication of the defamation at issue,” Cohen concluded.

Palpatine wouldn't abuse the Guard directly, at least not in a way they'd realize or remember. Instead, he'd give all his cronies in the Senate free reign to be as cruel as possible and then make himself their savior - the only one who genuinely cared, the only one who genuinely tried to keep them safe. Biotechnology can break, but even in the face of overwhelming evidence, genuine love and loyalty will make you hesitate, will make you suffer in learning the truth and in trying to enact justice - more suffering that a Sith facing down however many troopers and/or Jedi Masters can use to empower themself. Just another small part of the grand plan and all its contingencies and one that's easy enough to carry out with minimal risk from the safety of Coruscant.
