Will they try to use the Tucker Carlson "we are just entertainment" defense?

Hilarious. It'll get tossed. You can't sue a network for simply reporting the news.

Did you say the same thing about Nick Sandmann’s lawsuits?

Except it was a known lie, as all of the other networks and real journalists reported.

They were warned that it was a lie.

They repeated the lie.

The company suffered real damages.

The difference is that Fox reported what some were claiming, but also countered with stories supporting Dominion......(CNN never did that with Sandmann's story).....

A Fox News spokeswoman, when asked for commented, pointed to two segments that aired on Fox News last month. In one, a Dominion spokesman told host Eric Shawn that no significant electronic fraud or tampering occurred on the company’s voting machine, and that Trump’s claims about the company were false. The spokesman noted that printed ballots from the machines had matched the electronic tallies.

In the second segment, host Tucker Carlson at length detailed his staff’s efforts to get former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell, who at the time was on Trump’s election challenge team, to provide evidence of her controversial claims about Dominion.

“But she never sent us any evidence, despite a lot of polite requests,” Carlson said in the segment.

Other shows on Fox were still reporting as true! A few quotes to the contrary are too little too late.

So kind of like what WaPo and others did in their follow-up reporting on the story, which Sandmann said was simply evidence of how biased the original reporting was?

No, it's entirely different. You can see fox episodes making full-throated attacks on Dominion Systems long after the facts were known and AFTER the two events you cite as Fox's defense.

Fox News has gotten by with this cr*p for too long.

I think the Smartmatic case is stronger. They were blaming Smartmatic for issues in swing states, but only LA county used their software.

The fact that smartmatic software isn't even on Dominion's machines makes Dominion's case strong. That is an intern-level fact check.

Fox will use the "...some people are saying..." defense.

Let's see if a jury will humor that. Doubtful.

This is true. That case is stronger, but they will still have some problems with Dominion.
