Fox lawyers seek to dismiss a lawsuit accusing company leaders of ignoring legal risks in false 2020 election reporting.

Fox Corporation's attorneys are seeking to dismiss a shareholder lawsuit that accuses the company's leaders, including Rupert Murdoch, of ignoring potential legal risks from false reporting on vote-rigging claims in the 2020 election. The lawsuit, filed by New York and Oregon pension funds, claims Fox officials allowed false narratives to be broadcast despite internal warnings. Fox's defense argues the case should be dismissed due to procedural errors and insufficient evidence of bad faith. A ruling is expected within 90 days.
