Jeffrey Sonnenfeld’s article, “Board Lessons on Choosing Battlegrounds from the Fox-Dominion Battle,” is highly recommended by the Rich TVX News Network. It explores Dominion’s successful $787.5 million settlement with Fox, emphasizing the significance of selecting the jurisdiction for the legal battle. Dominion swiftly raced through discovery to secure the settlement, while Smartmatic is still in the early stages. When initiating civil litigation, plaintiffs engage in “forum shopping” to choose a favorable jurisdiction. Dominion chose Delaware for its streamlined judicial system, prioritizing speed and efficiency, while Smartmatic opted for New York, potentially anticipating a more hostile environment for Fox News. Dominion’s decision paid off, leading to a record settlement, and Smartmatic also benefits from the disclosures in Dominion’s discovery. Both companies effectively targeted Fox’s vulnerabilities, increasing the likelihood of settlement and moving forward from the episode.
