Bigger issue is Fox, which does not allow its hosts to discuss election fraud except to demean it like Brett Bair did with the Maricopa County forensic audit. Dominion’s lawsuit has muzzled Fox hosts.

Honestly, election fraud gets discussed all the time. The problem is that some patriots delved too greedily into the buffet table of election conspiracy. As it turns out, you're not allowed to malign companies or individuals without facts. Slander is not free speech. And companies that are fat targets for lawsuits (like Fox) don't want their anchors putting out pejorative claims that can't be substantiated. Or they'll be in the business of paying out "reasonable settlements" and detractions, like OANN just had to do with the GA election workers.

Fox won't go anywhere near Lindell because he's getting sued back to the stone age. I suspect most judges are going to expect to see the packet captures to back up his claims this time.

I watch Fox every day. I have rarely heard election fraud as it pertains to November 3 discussed and how it affected the election results. What shows discuss election fraud?

It is called intimidation and rationalization. The WP and NYT had no problem trying to debunk 2000 Mules with extensive stories. CNN and MSNBC do the same thing along with spreading lies about J6. One of the reasons Chris Wallace cited for leaving Fox was Tucker's three part series on J6. The self-censorship has more to do with Murdoch's dislike of Trump than it has to do fear of law suits.

We have plenty of facts and thousands of signed affidavits detailing election fraud. How closely have you followed the election fraud court cases in GA? I am not about to give Fox a pass.

They are happy to receive his ad money.
