Un tribunal du Delaware rejette la plainte en diffamation d'Epps contre Fox News

Un juge fédéral du Delaware a rejeté la plainte en diffamation déposée par James Ray Epps contre Fox News concernant des commentaires faits par Tucker Carlson. La décision a été rendue vendredi après qu'Epps a tenté de modifier sa plainte. L'affaire portait sur des allégations selon lesquelles Carlson aurait dépeint Epps comme un agent provocateur fédéral lors des émeutes du 6 janvier.

La juge de district américaine Jennifer Hall a fait droit à la demande de Fox News visant à rejeter la plainte modifiée. Elle a conclu qu'Epps n'avait pas réussi à invoquer des faits démontrant une réelle malveillance, un élément requis pour les personnalités publiques dans les affaires de diffamation. La juge a noté que bon nombre des nouvelles prétentions d'Epps étaient des affirmations péremptoires sans détails à l'appui.
