Judge Appoints Special Master to Investigate Fox News’ Handling of Court-Ordered Discovery in Defamation Lawsuit

Delaware Superior Court Judge Eric Davis has appointed a special master to investigate Fox News' handling of court-ordered discovery in a defamation lawsuit brought against the network by Dominion Voting Systems. The lawsuit alleges Fox News promoted false claims about Dominion's voting machines rigging the 2020 election, and the trial began Tuesday morning. This is the first major defamation case against a media company to go to trial since the Supreme Court ruled in 1964, and is expected to be closely watched by media companies and First Amendment advocates.
