Apparently the trial is expected to be 6 weeks long. There's supposed to be an audio feed, but I'm having trouble finding it at the moment.

Edit:

Critical facts that are already known:
  • The judge has previously ruled that it's crystal clear that Fox News lied about Dominion. I believe all Dominion will have to prove is whether Fox News lied with malice or reckless disregard for the truth.
  • From what Dominion has leaked from discovery and what is known about Sean Hannity's pre-trial deposition, Dominion has an extremely strong case to prove malice and/or reckless disregard for the truth.
  • Former Fox News director Abby Grossberg will testify for Dominion. Allegedly, she was intimidated and coerced by Fox News lawyers into giving false testimony in her deposition for this lawsuit. She also says Fox News lawyers deleted evidence from her phone that would have been damaging to Fox News when they collected her phone in the discovery process. She recently found an old phone with a few more recordings that wasn't turned over because she forgot about it at the time.

I found the call in number, but I don't think we're allowed to post phone numbers on GameFAQs. If a mod could clarify if a call-in number for this would be permitted, that would be awesome.

I believe they're beginning with jury selection, so we probably won't hear anything good immediately.

Yeah, I'm following twitter feeds at the moment. The call-in line (if it is actually the right one) is dead at the moment, likely because the jury selection process doesn't need to be aired.

I believe Dominion has expressed a strong interest in clearing their name with this lawsuit, which is one of the reasons they refused to settle and wanted to go to trial. I'm hoping part of the settlement will be that Fox News will be forced to repeatedly air retractions on all of their shows for a period of time... but we'll see.

Legal term that for the most part means they knew ahead of time what they were saying was false before they said it and dominion has tons of evidence for that.

Yep. It's really amazing just how much of a strong case Dominion has just from what they've leaked.

Newsmax literally has a canned statement they're forced to read any time someone remotely suggests the voting machines were tampered with and they will also mute you if you suggest it on their show.

settlement is always the preferred outcome. a case can settle at any time. even after the jury verdict.

since dominion wants more than mere money, fox would have to craft a settlement where fox admits they wrongly impugned dominion's integrity, and affirmatively state that, contrary to all their previous statements, dominion machines are trustworthy and dependable, and did not malfunction during the 2020 election. this kind of settlement is not one fox is likely to agree to; better to blame it on a liberal jury than to admit it yourself.

It's not going to stop at the 2020 election. They're going to demand that Fox never talk about voting machines ever again.

It won't. Fox's reputation is pretty much already deep in the septic tank for anyone who isn't magat and this won't change their minds it'll just fuel their persecution complexes.

Fox will cut a check and do a puppet dance on TV for the verdict of the trial and in the end nothing will change except Fox will be a little more careful with what they lie about in the future.

They don't call themselves a news organization technically though because for exactly the reason you mention. People have tried that before only to find out that all their programming is actually commentary / opinion / talk show entertainment and the only News on the channel is the sports and weather segments.

what youre asking for is already a thing. They call themselves an entertainment organization, sort of like the WWE to a real news channels UFC/boxing.

the problem is they still use the word news.

Yeah but they're still allowed to call themselves "Fox News". They should be forced to take the "News" part out of their name.
