  A voting technology firm suing Fox News for defamation over its 2020 election coverage claimed senior corporate executives, including Rupert Murdoch, intentionally destroyed damning evidence in the case, according to court filings.

Smartmatic, a voting technology company, has accused Fox News and its chairman, Rupert Murdoch, of intentionally destroying evidence in a defamation lawsuit filed against them. The lawsuit stems from Fox News' coverage of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, where the network falsely claimed that Smartmatic's voting machines were used to rig the election in favor of Joe Biden. Smartmatic alleges that Fox News and Murdoch deleted crucial evidence, including emails and text messages, that could have proven the network's malicious intent and knowledge of the falsehoods they were spreading. The company is seeking sanctions against Fox News and Murdoch for their alleged actions, which they claim were done in bad faith to hinder their case.
