Hunter Biden Sues Fox News for Defamation Over Miniseries Featuring Nude Photos

Jul 1, 2024, 04:32 PM

Hunter Biden, son of U.S. President Joe Biden, has filed a lawsuit against Fox News for defamation. The lawsuit centers on a miniseries titled 'The Trial of Hunter Biden' that aired on Fox Nation. The miniseries, which dramatized a 'mock trial,' included nude photos and videos of Hunter Biden and focused on his foreign business dealings. Biden's lawsuit accuses Fox News of unjust enrichment, intentionally inflicting emotional distress, and publishing his private explicit images without his consent. Fox News has responded by calling the lawsuit 'politically motivated' and 'devoid of merit,' noting that the program was removed after a complaint was made in late April 2024.
