Murdoch, chairman of Fox News parent company Fox Corp (FOXA.O), is expected to testify in court. As a Fox News officer, Murdoch would likely have been subject to more probing discovery by Dominion. A Fox lawyer told the hearing that Murdoch disclosed the title in a February deposition and he called the title "honorific." In 2019, when Fox Corp was formed from some assets of the former 21st Century Fox, Murdoch was described in Fox's proxy as the executive chairman of the news business. Fox News did not immediately respond to a question why Murdoch's executive chairman role was excluded from earlier court filings.
