    They’ve been doing it since their inception. That’s the whole point of their existence. Nobody has stopped them yet, why should it be any different now?

      Suing Fox worked well for Dominion Voting.

        I mean, they won the case, but FOX got to lie about them for years and their viewers don’t care about the loss in court.

          That’s true but notice that they reined in their anchors after Dominion. Many topics were no longer allowed because they don’t want to lose money.

          If Fox had a time machine, I bet money they wouldn’t do the Dominion thing again. They lost over 1/5th of their cash on hand when that whole thing was settled.

          Hunter Biden will be different though. That’s not as clear cut as the Dominion case, and Biden isn’t going to be able to say that he lost billions in sales because of their bullshit. They will have made more money off Hunter Biden than they spent - if they have to pay him out.
