Judge Jennifer L. Hall ruled that Ray Epps failed to prove that Tucker Carlson acted with actual malice in his allegations about Epps' role on January 6.
Defamation lawsuits against media figures are challenging, and even subpar journalism doesn't necessarily indicate malicious intent, as highlighted by Judge Hall's ruling.
The dismissal of Epps' case marks a significant win for Carlson, who faced scrutiny after Fox agreed to a hefty settlement with Dominion Voting Systems.
Fox News stated that the dismissal of Epps' defamation claims marks the third time judges have ruled against defamation suits against the network in recent months.
