0:00.0 | I'm Ben Mycelas from the Midas Touch Network. Things are heating up in Dominion's $1.6 billion |
0:07.6 | defamation lawsuit brought against Fox in Delaware Superior Court before the presiding |
0:14.0 | judge there judge Eric Davis last week. Dominion filed a motion for sanctions against Fox |
0:21.9 | for spoliation, which means the intentional destruction of emails and according to the |
0:28.2 | motion filed by Dominion Fox intentionally deleted emails that belong to Sean Hannity, |
