Rupert Murdoch is being deposed Tuesday as part of the $2.7 billion defamation lawsuit filed against Fox Corp. by the voting technology company Smartmatic, a source familiar with the matter told CNBC. It is the second time this year that Murdoch, 92, has been deposed in a high-stakes defamation lawsuit accusing Fox News of airing damaging lies about the 2020 U.S. presidential election. Under questioning in January as part of a similar defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion Voting Systems, Murdoch admitted that some Fox News hosts and personalities "endorsed" the false narrative that the election was stolen from then-President Donald Trump. Fox paid $787.5 million to settle Dominion's lawsuit, nearly half the $1.6 billion figure initially demanded by the voting company.

An experiment has reportedly revealed Meta's algorithm has served up child-sexualizing reels to followers of teen and pre-teen influencers on Instagram. A new report from The Wall Street Journal has claimed Meta's algorithm for Instagram Reels served up questionable content to accounts that were exclusively following pre-teen and teen influencers on the platform. 2VIEW GALLERY - 2 IMAGESThe WSJ conducted an experiment by taking a group of accounts and exclusively following pre-teen and teen influencers. These types of ads aren't allowed on Meta's platforms, yet they were being served to accounts designed to simulate a typical child's account. It seems that Meta's content algorithm has now had the spotlight placed on it, which Meta has responded to - saying it "would pay for brand-safety auditing services to determine how often a company's ads appear beside content it considers unacceptable."
