second callback this week to the Carlson meltdown of January 2022.

CNN’s Jake Tapper slammed Fox News on Tuesday after the conservative network aired select clips from about 40,000 hours of Capitol security footage during the events of Jan. 6, 2021. “Fox used the footage given to them exclusively by House speaker Kevin McCarthy to frame a description of the events of Jan.

A huge release of text messages, emails and deposition transcripts dropped today in the Dominion vs. Fox litigation sheds further light on the scramble among Fox News personalities and Fox Corp. executives to respond to the backlash in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election and then the repercussions after the attack on the Capitol on January 6th.

A Monday night segment of “The Beat” on MSNBC had host Ari Melber skewering former president Donald Trump, embattled Fox News media mogul Rupert Murdoch and the continued push-and-pull of their political and financial relations. After walking through Murdoch’s ongoing feud with the former president, which is currently seen in Fox News’ “soft ban” of the politician, which has garnered his heated responses on Truth Social decrying the network as “MAGA hating globalist rhinos” and demanding “they get out of the news business,” Melber invited “Talking Points Memo” founder and editor Josh Marshall on air to parse things out further.

The New York Times examined the response of those networks to the private messages that were made public in Dominion Voting Systems’ $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News.

The sketch comes amid a cascade of embarrassing revelations around Fox News and its major stars in recent days as the litigation grinds on in the $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit filed against Fox News by Dominion Voting Systems after the 2020 election. As Earhardt, Gardner says of the network’s founder Rupert Murdoch: “Rupert Murdoch would never murder anyone. They sent him away for life.

deposition he gave last month that he knew Fox News Channel was spreading false claims about the 2020 presidential election. Claims that Dominion voting machines were compromised are the basis of a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit by Dominion Voting Systems. Darcy said Murdoch’s deposition will be detrimental to the channel, especially the case goes to trial.“It will be devastating for Fox, I mean this is a taste of what’s to come. Imagine Rupert Murdoch on the stand, Lachlan Murdoch on the stand, Sean Hannity on the stand, Tucker Carlson on the stand,” said Darcy. “This will be weeks and weeks of damning headlines, which could really damage Fox’s brand.

On Tuesday night, the “Daily Show” guest host joked that, in reality, it seems Fox personalities are more like those on MSNBC.A quick refresher on those messages: in a court filing on Thursday, February 16, Dominion Voting provided texts, emails and other forms of communication between Fox News hosts from after the 2020 election, in which they called out some of the network’s guests for perpetuating unsupported claims that voting was electronically rigged against twice-impeached former president Donald Trump.Among the messages were ones that said things like “Sidney Powell is lying,” sent from Tucker Carlson to his producer Alex Pfeiffer on Nov.

the former president wrote on Truth Social. “There is MASSIVE evidence of voter fraud & irregularities in the 2020 Presidential Election.

Representative Adam Schiff calls for advertisers to rethink putting their dollars behind Fox News and “stations that deliberately put out lies and deliberately undermine our elections,” tells MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell, “Since there is nothing but the profit motive operating here, the only way to attack is to attack the profit.”The Democratic rep from California stopped by “The Last Word” Monday to discuss, among many things, Dominion Voting Systems’ lawsuit against FNC for defamation and the recent release of news that Fox corporate chairman Rupert Murdoch acknowledged that top Fox News hosts “endorsed” on-air what they knew to be a false narrative.“We see the Fox executives, including the very top executive, understood that they were lying to the American people and what a destructive impact it was having on our elections, on the confidence of our elections, and they did nothing to stop it and,” Schiff said. “Indeed, they affirmatively allowed it to go on because they were worried about losing ratings.”Schiff called Fox News and all those that work there “shameful” for their behavior.
