By Oliver Darcy | CNNRupert Murdoch, the chairman of Fox Corporation, acknowledged in a deposition taken by Dominion Voting Systems that some Fox News hosts endorsed false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. Murdoch’s remarks were made public in a legal filing as part of Dominion’s $1.6 billion lawsuit against Fox News. In his deposition, Murdoch rejected that the right-wing talk network as an entity endorsed former President Donald Trump’s election lies. The filing also revealed that Murdoch referred to some of Trump’s 2020 election lies as “bulls**t and damaging.”In a Monday statement, Fox News assailed Dominion. Top legal experts told CNN after last week’s filing that Dominion’s legal position appeared strong.
