A Delaware judge finds the right-wing network aired false and defamatory statements about Dominion Voting Systems' role in the 2020 presidential election. A jury trial is slated for late April.

A Delaware judge ruled that the right-wing cable channel Newsmax made defamatory statements about Dominion Voting Systems when it falsely claimed that the company rigged votes in the 2020 presidential election.

Dominion is seeking $1.6 billion in damages, which will be decided by a jury in a trial that will begin April 28 unless a settlement is reached.
