this is murdoch on murdoch, a story by mur.com that serves murdoch's current interest in this case, which is to present fox as some truth telling numbers based out let that stands up to trump. that may be what happened about arizona. may be an exchange. it would be dump for murdoch to lie under oath about a trial, but this is to tell a certain piece of the story, and brings us to the next passage. as we get the information we'll be going through it with you. murdoch relates in this new deposition testimony what he says is his own resistance, describing his own kind of iron, independent backbone. murdoch telling kushner, quote, the numbers are the numbers. okay. until they weren't. because let me be clear and fair as possible. had fox news held that line about the numbers over the following months, there wouldn't be any strong defamation case over lies. there wouldn't be any of this, and perhaps ironically because stories tend to repeat themselves in a way, the arrogance, the way people think they'll never get caught. there wouldn't be without the change all these leaked texts and new depo

he had access to the hosts, murdoch, and how everything works. the fact that he on the inside is concerned is damning. i hate to repeat myself, the professor knows it's part of my job to repeat myself -- we'll defend every media outlet's first amendment rights whatever ideological place they want to be. we don't on this program want to go near defamation laws to punish disagreement, ideology, freedom of speech. but boy, is it a loft evidence that they weren't doing that, that on the inside they were knowingly lying. i'm running out of time, but you look like you have one more thing to say, professor. >> where we are in the lawsuit, this is a motion for summary judgment. is this judge going decide this on the papers, or does the judge believe there are sufficient issues of fact left open that could proceed to a trial? it seems here dominion is saying, you have everything you need to know to establish there was malice here. and the question will be for murdoch and fox news corps whether or not this proceeds. seems to be an open and shut case. >> ye

so why did murdoch allow it?the man is on every night, pays us a lot of money, murdoch said. at first you think it's comic, and then you get bored and irritated. >> rupert murdoch thought it was more important to keep the profit machine going than to interrupt its flow. >> reporter: fox says it shouldn't be held liable for assertions of hosts and guests on its air, says the dominion lawsuit is a violation of their first amendment rights and an attempt to, quote, publicly smear fox for covering trump's election claims. according to documents in the lawsuit, the day before the january 6th attack on the capitol, rupert murdoch and fox news ceo suzanne scott discussed the idea of having fox prime time stars sean hannity, tucker carlson and laura ingraham go on the air on the eve of the attack and make it clear to viewers that biden had won the election. scott told murdoch they needed to be careful about, quote, missing off the viewers. so none of the anchors ever made a statement like that. >> unbelievable. brian tod

big decision at the alex murdoch trial. the judge is allowing jurors to visit the crime scene where the ones prominent lawyer allegedly murdered his wife and son to cover up financial crimes. it comes as a defense tries to make the case that there were two shooters this morning. a south carolina jury is one step closer to deciding alec murdoch's fate. the disgraced former attorney accused of killing his wife and son. defense rests your honor defense resting its case after calling to crime scene experts to testify about the possibility that there were two shooters. my opinion is the totality of the evidence is more suggestive of a two shooter scenario, one expert claiming there would have been no time for a single shooter to kill murdoch's son. paul then grabbed the second weapon and kill maggie murdock because he says blowback from the first shotgun blast would have slowed him down. what we call back spattering or back motion and the person holding that gun would they be subject to being covered in that material? yes very f

a dramatic disruption at the murdoch trial. gentlemen we have to evacuate the building from the bill call, claiming there was a bomb in the judge's chamber, forcing an evacuation crowds streaming from the building as authorities did a security sweep. murdoch whisked away in a van. a few hours later , it was back to business. but the judge making no mention of that threat bring the jury comes after the defense tried to chip away at the state's evidence showing gunshot residue. was found on murdoch's close his hand car and this raincoat seized from his parents' home unless it's cleaned off or washedoff. it'll stay for four years. it could yes. you have no idea. how gunshot primer residue. ended up on that garment. correct i cannot tell you how it got there murdoch's team, arguing it could have come from a shotgun he was holding when police arrived. earlier a paralegal testifying about how murdoch had been stealing from his own firm. i was hurt. i was angry. i just. i was beside myself. she said she noticed a change in him in 2019

the documents say murdoch agreed with ryan.ion's lawsuit fox said it shouldn't be held liable for the assertions of its hosts and guests on-air. according to documents from the lawsuit the day before the january 6th attack on the capitol, murdoch and a top fox executive discussed having the network's prime time stars go on the air and make it clear to viewers that trump won the election, but they didn't want to anger fox viewers so that didn't happen. wolf? >> brian, thanks very much. let's bring in our legal and political experts. norm eisen,ile start with you. how strong is dominion's $1.6 billion case against fox? >> wolf, i think it's strong. the constitution protects speech. we need that for the press. but there are limits. if you put on news when you know it's false or you're behaving recklessly you can be held liable. and by admitting that fox didn't just report, they endorsed, murdoch has helped dominion make its case. and it's not just $1.6 billion, wolf. that's just the lost profits and the enterprise value that's los

murdoch was in trouble. i don't think you need a full scale forensic audit for something a five year old could see. a judge is expected to rule today. whether the gunshot residue evidence on the raincoat will be admissible as evidence. meanwhile residue expert testified yesterday that murdock's clothes from the night of the murders smelled like they were freshly laundered. coming up. the nascar champion arrested in mexico also ahead the danger of using social media sites like facebook marketplace what we're learning after a man was shot, trying to buy something on the trying to buy something on the site and the scams t there's nothing like hitting the waves. there's nothing like volunteering. but my moderate-to-severe eczema can make it hard. now i'm staying ahead of it. dupixent helps heal your skin from within. so you can have clearer skin and noticeably less itch. serious allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. tell your doctor about new or worsening eye problems such as eye pain or vision change

rupert murdoch, testifying under oath by lawyers. when asked why he did not stop the lies about dominion, the lawsuit is about, said i could have, but i did not. in any other civil case, that would be an admission of liability that the defendant could not survive. but with that admission under oath, the only thing standing here between rupert murdoch and the billion dollar judgment against him in court, it's the first amendment. fox defense so far, it rests entirely on the first amendment journalistic principle that what donald trump was saying about the election was newsworthy, and fox had a first amendment right to cover it uncritically. dominion needs to prove that rupert murdoch and fox executives, in the fox entertainers, on television, they knew it was all a lie, and they pushed it anyways. dominion has taken the discovery process a long way to proving that everybody at fox knew that it was a lie. dominion's filing today, as we've learned, the fox lawyers were worried about sean hannity saying that it will be impossible to ever

but murdoch himself is saying, no, they endorsed these lies.ewhere, you know, in private e-mails that dominion has obtained, for instance, murdoch is calling those lies, he says they're damaging to the country. he at one point referred to them as bs. so it's very clear that behind the scenes, fox executives, fox stars knew that these lies were not true, but they continued to peddle it to their viewers, and it seems, because of a financial incentive. >> yeah, they were concerned about their competitors who were in that moment being endorsed by trump, siphoning viewers away. you know, oliver, the other part of this is the way that these filings seem to show that this organization, fox, was really gearing themselves towards helping the trump campaign, the republican party, they talked about, you know, their efforts to help republicans win the senate, focusing on the runoff campaigns. tell us about all of that. >> yeah, there's so many revelations, abby, in this filing, it's impossible to detail it in one segment. but there are a few i want to high

rupert murdoch's testimony is disastrous.as going to be or what i thought it would be as we were covering this because it was newsworthy and we were endorsing it it. in this testimony he said, we did endorse it but he tries to draw this artificial line. it's all our anchors but not outs. what is fox, if not it's anchors, it's not going to work. >> big picture more conservative justice mark to revisit times versus sullivan and the malice standard trying to potentially change where the boris. could this case to change that president overall? >> it is possible but i don't think that will happen. the movement and the chatter has been why don't we make it easier to sue media organizations. i don't think ultimately the supreme court will want to go down this path. the bar is high and it has been high for 50 years and frankly i think right, left, conservative and liberal the supreme court wants to keep it hot as well. >> they were trying to get them not to put too giuliani on the air. about platforming election liars. >> and without

rupert murdoch responds: thanks, paul.wake up call for hannity privately disgusted by trump for weeks but scareed to lose viewers. it is inexcusable. >> privately disgusted. private not so much. when i covered it, so much evidence showed fox played some sort of role, hosts discussing election lie. january 6th panel continuously mentioning. they kind of drop bread crumbs. when i was sitting in the hearing room, whether live testimony of one of the rioters or tape interviews, how baked in the misinformation was. yes, i believed that the election was stolen. i kept thinking, how do they get to that point they stormed the cap capitol? this is a personification what we heard from rupert murdoch, misinformation did lead to these events. >> it has been a long, long, long time especially prime time, fox is about opinion. rupert murdoch specifically named sean hannity, and maureen and lou dobbs. >> it will be impossible to ever know the true, fair, accurate election results. >> sydney powell leading charge against dominion, she has

murdoch was being questioned for a third time. a few months after the murders. did you consider alex murdock's suspect in the death of his son and his wife? he was the only known suspect at that time. yes defense, pressing that agent getting him to admit they never asked murdoch for those clothes seen in paul's video, even pilgrim abc news, walterboro, south carolina. eva, thank you coming up tooth fairy inflation is the going rate. really 20 bucks. rina for us, remembering a hollywood screen siren how raquel welch sizzled both the big screen and the small screen for more than 50 years. you're watching world news now. the final season february 22nd on fx stream on hulu. no problem. nothing hustle. get behind the modesty screen and dropping. he'll never get away with. this will come home for supper. every cop in bolt will be on your tail supper . what's it called the boulder? the difference. that was the legendary raquel welch playing an evil space invader alongside robin williams on abc's mork and mindy duo, the international sex symbol and hollywood superstar h

rupert murdoch.the deposition compared with what the hosts were saying in realtime, telling people who were watching on air. one of the questions he was asked was, you're now aware that fox endorsed times this false notion of a stolen election. murdoch answered, not fox, no, not fox. but maybe lou dobbs, maybe maria as commentators. the lawyer asked, question, we went through fox host maria bartiromo, yes, come on. >> sidney, we talked about the dominion software. i know there were voting irregularities. tell me about that. >> that's to put it mildly. the computer glitches could not and should not have happened at all. that is where the fraud took place. >> then murdoch was asked, what about fox host janine pirro, he answered, quote, i think so. >> the president's lawyers alleging a company called dominion, which they say started in venezuela with cuban money a back door is capable of flipping votes. >> another question posed to murdoch, fox business host lou dobbs, his answer, oh, a lot. >> this pre

murdoch gave police, she says. hours after the murders, murder made an unusual visit to his sleeping mother. and later she says he tried to insist that his visit lasted about 40 minutes instead of 20. days later, smith says murdoch returned knocking on the window at 6 30 am carrying something under his arm. there's something like this look like like a blue toy like a toy investigators holding up not a tarp, but a blue raincoat recovered from the home of murders. parents prosecutors say it had gunshot residue on it. the defense firing back asking why smith waited months to mention it to police. you didn't say anything about a blue tarp until sometime in september. is that right? yes yesterday, the judge issuing a major ruling allowing evidence related to murders alleged financial crimes , which could help establish a motive for the murders. the state alleges that mr murdoch was under immense pressure after being confronted about his diet, financial straits. and looming exposure of this criminal activity, and the sta

rupert murdoch's deposition. the filing goes on to say, there you have it, foxcorp chairman rupert murdoch admitted under oath that the host of the accused fox shows endorsed this idea of a stolen election. jason johnson, you're nodding your head. i don't have words yet. i'm not shocked. it's so disinagainous. >> it's shocking to read it in black and white. it's like, we're not crazy. they knew it was b.s., too. built barr knew it. they all knew it was a lie. >> right, right. to throw all of this on lou dobbs, no, no, he was the ohm outliars, and it's disingenuous, it wasn't our hosts, bur our guests and comment tailors, your hosts were bringing those people on, while texting to others that they're nut jobs, and everything else. i don't know how legally fox can get out of this, but i think it's very, very telling to me, again, nicolle, as we were just talking, it's not going to change a thing how they operate unless they get hit with fines or penalties. >> what i keep thinking we only know this, because -- has mo

reggie: there is a shocking admission from rupert murdoch. he has admitted that some hosts endorsed claims the 2020 election was stolen even though they knew those claims were false. >> one legal expert calls the statements made by rupert murdoch strong evidence that people knew they were endorsing false claims. murdoch saying in new court filings, "i would have liked us to have been stronger in endorsing it in hindsight. they should be reprimanded or gotten rid of." >> you are not supposed to say things that you know are false or are recklessly. indifferent to the truth >> murdoch made the remarks during a deposition. fox news is being sued by dominion voting systems, saying that will hurt its business by allowing some anchors to claim it read to the election. murdoch's recognizes claims were promoted by fox hosts, including lou dobbs, janine euro, and -- janine pirro, and maria bartiromo. >> they have invested in their own reasons and are using it to commit this fraud. >> dominion lawyers asked murdoch if he was aware that the hosts endorse

she was teary eyed as she spoke about her sister and nephew and told the courtroom what murdoch said. and did that she found strange. here's a b cs eva pilgrim. maggie murdock's family , breaking their silence her sister marian, taking the stand in the case against her brother in law, getting emotional as she recalled, alec murdoch had asked his wife, maggie, to come home from their beach house just hours before she was murdered. you encouraged her to go to movies. i did. is that the last time you talked to him? yes. prosecutors say that night, alex murdoch shot maggie and his son paul, to death at close range on the family's estate. maggie's sister remembers asking alec, if you thought they suffered. i did, at one point asked him s maggie suffered. he assured me that she did not. now i don't think that's true. maggie's sister, saying after the murder , she found it odd. alec was still preoccupied with clearing his son's name. paul had been facing charges for a fatal boat crash. and i thought that was so strange because my number one goal was to find out who killed my sister and pop.

murdoch getting emotional in court yesterday. both of gunshot wounds to the head. for the first time, we're seeing body camera video showing police arrived at the crime scene minutes after alex murdoch called 911 to report his wife, maggie, and son paul had been shot to death. an officer doing a brief pat down. it's bad check the bulls. murdoch tells police . their deaths are probably linked to threats against his son, paul. after he was in a boat crash. my son was in a boat wreck of months back. he's been getting threats. most of it's been benign stuff. we didn't take serious. you know he's been getting punched. um no, there's somebody i know that's what it is. officers cover the bodies outside the family's dog kennel with sheets. they are dead on that. yes, sir. that's what that's what it looks like. alex murdoch grew visibly upset in court, wiping his eyes as the pathologist walked the jury through graphic images of the gunshot wounds, she said paul murdoch was first shot in the chest at close range, then turned towards the shooter was facing in the direction fr

there's also evidence that's come out of this case that rupert murdoch, lachlan murdoch, they had theirds meddling in the day-to-day operations. they weren't benevolent dictators that didn't know what was going on. the defamation and responsibility goes from top to bottom. that's a critical point, because no matter what rupert murdoch wants to do, he can't punt liability or exposure just to his hosts and say they went rogue and did what they wanted to do and endorsed it, no. they gave them a platform and endorsed it. that's the problem. it's so glaringly obvious what the liability is going to be on the part of fox news. where it really kicks in the most is the damages in this case. dominion voting, we always talk about the $1.6 billion, but if you read towards the end of this 212-page filing, they're seeking punitive damages. in the state of new york, there is no cap to punitive damages. it's not just the 1.6 billion. it's $1.6 billion plus. another critical problem for fox news is the fact that summary judgment, meaning if the judge says there's no genuine issue of material fact that a

rupert murdoch said, yes, they endorsed.veals, again, the disdain that rupert murdoch has for these election lies. he referred to them at one point as bs. and damaging in an e-mail, and he's also said that he wishes the network did more to tamp down these conspiracy theories. of course hindsight, wolf, is 2020, and when you're being sued for $1.6 billion, that might result in doing things a different way. >> what else stands out to you in this brand new brief that has just been released. and just how serious is the legal threat right now that is available for fox? >> well, i think it's quite serious because when you go beyond reporting, fox defense is, well, we were just reporting. but when you go beyond reporting and your chairman admits there was endorsement, then that opens you up to liability under the actual malice standard. and, wolf, it's not just $1.6 million. if the jury decides that this conduct was egregious enough and much that is in here continues to be shocking, that's bristling almost 200 pages, every page has

even rupert murdoch says that. so all the reporters who tried to tell the truth they got punished to fire, but not people like -- because the feature is the buck. >> the feature is the buck. angelo caruso, and david david folkenflik, thank you both so very much. still ahead, florida's stunt governor presents the latest installment in his latest anti-woke agenda. but will be it be enough to top donald trump in a republican primary? that's next. if you have diabetes, then getting on the dexcom g6 is the single most important thing you can do. it eliminates painful fingersticks, helps lower a1c, and it's covered by medicare. before dexcom g6, i was frustrated. all of that finger-pricking and all of that pain, my a1c was still stuck. my diabetes was out of control. i was tired.

newly released court documents revealed company founder rupert murdoch admitted that some hosts knowingly pushed false election claims. how much legal jeopardy could this put fox? >>> right now, the justices are hearing arguments in two cases that will determine whether president biden's plan to cancel debt for tens of millions will be moved forward. we're going to begin with the breaking news at the supreme court. joining us from outside the court, nbc news washington correspondent yamiche alcindor. what are we expecting to hear today? >> reporter: this is a big day at the supreme court. if you can hear, there are protests already with people in favor of the student loan relief program. this does all come down to a biden administration program that was launched in august 2022. the president was saying that he wanted to relieve student loan debt up to $20,000. of course now you have two particular groups that are suing to stop that. you have gop states in biden versus nebraska. you have the department of education versus brown, two student loan borrowers say this program isn't expansive e

the discrepancies about murdoch's whereabouts, is that enough to sew doubt in a jury?eed one juror to decide that they like alex murdaugh. he's bigger than life character in this town. his son testified, his remaining son buster testified that his dad was distraught on the night that he discovered his wife and son murdered and if a juror sitting there thinking i don't believe that this man, even though he's a drug addict and even though he's stolen money, even though he's lied, i don't think he would blow the brains out of his younger son and kill his wife. one juror may be convinced that the fact that the son is testifying on his dad's behalf and saying he was distraught, that might be enough for one juror to be a holdout and not see a conviction in the case. >> i wonder what you think about him admitting he lied. on one hand, he's admitting he lied about something but he's saying he didn't kill his wife and his son. so he's giving something, right? is that -- does a jury sort of look at that and say okay, that's actually helpful he's coming clean about something or d

how is it going for murdoch it seems he has a qualified defense team do you think the jury is buying >> i don't. i really don't think at this point that the jury is buying it. he has a as you said a very qualified defense team they're putting up a really good fight. but this week, the state introduced evidence that really poked holes in his alibi that first and foremost shows that he's allegedly a liar and having a defendant who lied about his whereabouts whether or not he did it or not does not sit well with the jury and then you're going add on top of that that evidence they introduced to poke holes in that alibi puts murdoch at the crime scene with the victims within six or seven minutes of the murders that is not going to sit well with a jury. lawrence: i've noticed a lot of crying in the courtroom from him. do you think any of that is -- making its way to the jury do you think it is believable? do you think they interpret shame or guilt or innocence? >> my guess is a little bit of all of that. i mean i don't know if i would be thinking they're interpreting it as innocence. but s
