Rupert Murdoch to Be Deposed Next Week in Voting-Machine Suit Against Fox

Rupert Murdoch will be deposed next week as part of Dominion Voting Systems Inc.’s $1.6 billion defamation suit against Fox News over the media company’s reports on a conspiracy theory about the 2020 presidential election.

Dominion has been gathering evidence and testimony to help prove its allegation that Fox News recklessly aired claims that the voting-machine company rigged the election by flipping millions of votes away from former President Donald Trump, who continues to echo the conspiracy theory.
