デラウェア州の連邦地方裁判所は、ジェームズ・レイ・エップス氏がタッカー・カールソン氏のコメントを巡ってフォックスニュースを訴えていた名誉毀損訴訟を棄却した。この判決は、エップス氏が訴状の修正を試みた後の金曜日に言い渡された。この裁判は、カールソン氏が1月6日の議事堂襲撃事件においてエップス氏を連邦政府の扇動工作員であるかのように描写したという主張を中心に争われていた。
ジェニファー・ホール連邦地方判事は、フォックスニュースによる修正訴状の棄却申し立てを認めた。判事は、エップス氏が名誉毀損訴訟において公人に対する立証要件である「現実的悪意」を示す事実を主張できなかったと判断した。判事は、エップス氏による新たな主張の多くが、裏付けとなる詳細を欠いた断定的な陳述に過ぎないと指摘した。
