A complaint has been filed against Fox Corp. and chairman Rupert Murdoch over allegations that the network chief gave confidential information in 2020 to former president Donald Trump’s campaign.

A filing in Dominion Voting System’s defamation suit against Fox included claims that Murdoch gave Kushner a preview of Biden’s ads before they were public.

The Federal Election Campaign Act prohibits campaign contributions from corporations, including direct or indirect gits of money or services.

The FEC considers information about advertising, messaging and other campaign strategy a contribution, according to the complaint.

While there are press exemptions for violations of the FEC Act, the suit alleges that Fox wasn’t acting as a press entity.

It stresses that the ads hadn’t aired at the time Murdoch provided the information to Kushner and that the ads were covertly shared to hide the alleged misconduct.

Fox and the White House didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment. »
