Newsmax sues Fox News in battle of right-wing TV
Newsmax, a right-wing US media network, is suing Fox News for anticompetitive behavior, alleging that Fox uses exclusivity deals and intimidation tactics to suppress competition. The lawsuit, filed in a Florida federal court, contends that Fox leverages its market power to limit access to other right-leaning channels and coercively control TV providers. Newsmax seeks to challenge Fox News' alleged unlawful conduct, including engaging in exclusionary contracts and intimidation techniques, and is pursuing both legal action and monetary damages.
