Fox News Emails Show CEO Felt Fact-Checking Trump Was ‘Bad for Business’Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott instructed journalists to not fact-check Donald Trump’s false claims about the 2020 election. It’s the latest update in the news organization’s ongoing defamation battle with Dominion Voting Systems.

During a hearing earlier in March, Dominion Voting Systems, which is suing Fox News for a whopping $1.6 billion, shared with the members of the court a slide show with responses and emails that included messages from Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott to executive VP of primetime programming Meade Cooper urging for Fox News reporters and anchors to no longer fact-check Trump.

The email to Cooper was previously redacted in earlier court filings, and the latest emails were presented at a hearing last week in Wilmington, Delaware. The slides were first reported by Media Matters for America.
