hi, everyone i know that we say this a lot these days but buckle up it s 4:00 in new york. we re following breaking news on that monster $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against fox news just a little bit ago we received word of a bombshell of a plot twist during what was supposed to be the last pretrial hearing before jury selection begins. here s that headline the judge has sanctioned fox news and its parent company, fox corp, for withholding evidence in the dominion defamation suit and said he is considering further investigation and censure. he is considering appointing a special master to investigate the fox local team s actions now, the breaking point today appears to be surprise evidence that was introduced in court today when this happened, quote, lawyers for dominion voting systems played recordings that fox news producer abby grossberg made during 2020, which were not handed over to dominion s lawyers during discovery we have a team of experts and friends to help us
dominions arguments. he imposed this sanction against fox that s going to allow dominion to take additional depositions of fox witnesses if they want to. fox is going to need to make those witnesses available and pay for the depositions. not only that guys, but the judge said he s going to appoint a special master to investigate fox to look into the possibility that they have misled the court and withheld key material like emails or text messages that dominion is legally allowed to get as part of the case. for its part, fox denies that it did anything wrong. fox says they didn t defame anyone, and fox says that they never withheld anything from anyone. but guys, this is all unfolding on literally the eve of the trial. jury selection is supposed to start tomorrow morning, so there s a tremendous amount of drama. it has not been a very good day for fox, and there is much more to come here in washington. guys never a good day for the defendant when the judge appoints a special master
