"This case is a profound threat to the First Amendment, and it should be rejected in its entirety," lawyers for Fox News wrote in a filing urging a judge to dismiss the case, calling Dominion's argument "an extreme view of defamation law that no court could or should sanction."
Dominion, for its part, said it "paid the price" for Fox News' lies as the network threw democracy itself to the lions for the viewership ratings.
"Fox knew the truth. It knew the allegations against Dominion were 'outlandish' and 'crazy' and 'ludicrous' and 'nuts,'" Dominion Voting Systems' lawyers wrote in a filing, quoting texts and emails obtained from Fox News hosts and producers. "Yet it used the power and influence of its platform to promote that false story. Fox knew better."
