From the moment Joe Biden became president-elect in 2020, Fox hosts fueled a fire of misinformation and violence by spreading Trump's tales of election fraud and suppressing the truth. Come January, Sean Hannity insisted Trump needed to stop listening to \"crazy people\" who swore he could stay in power, but it was too late--thousands of Trump's deluded followers had stormed the Capitol and Trump operatives had breached Dominion Voting Systems' voting machines in Georgia. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNow, the 2020 lies are at the center of numerous indictments and his reelection campaign, but Trump is not the only one under fire. The once-untouchable Rupert Murdoch has been held accountable. Dominion's legal war, chronicled in-depth for the first time here, revealed that the ninety-two-year-old Fox chairman knew Trump's lies were dangerous but he allowed the lies to fill Fox's airwaves because, as his \"pain sponge\" Suzanne Scott admitted, telling the truth was \"bad for business.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eNetwork of Lies \u003c\/i\u003egoes inside the chat rooms, board rooms, and court rooms where the pro-Trump media's greed and selfishness were exposed.
