The voting machine company sued Fox News for $1.6bn over its coverage of false claims that the company rigged the 2020 US presidential election.
Dominion argued that Fox News made the claims to boost its faltering TV ratings.
It claimed the news channel"sold a false story of election fraud in order to serve its own commercial purposes, severely injuring Dominion in the process," according to a copy of the lawsuit. "The truth matters. Lies have consequences," the lawsuit said."If this case does not rise to the level of defamation by a broadcaster, then nothing does."Judge Davis had sanctioned Fox last week after it withheld records until the eve of the trial.
That evidence included recordings of Rudy Giuliani, Trump's lawyer, saying in pre-taped Fox appearances that he did not have any evidence to back up the false allegations of election rigging.
