CNN legal analyst Elie Honig told Don Lemon that the $1.6 billion lawsuit by Dominion Voting systems is “a real threat to Fox News.”

On Friday night’s edition of CNN Tonight, Lemon introduced viewers to the story of the massive lawsuit by playing multiple clips from Fox News personalities like Lou Dobbs, Tucker Carlson, and Maria Bartiromo making claims that are the subject of the  suit.

He followed the montage by noting “Well, a spokesperson for Fox tells CNN the network is proud of its election coverage and describes it as being in the highest tradition of American journalism,” then added a wry “Okay.”

The Fox News statement provided to Mediaite read, in full, “FOX News Media is proud of our 2020 election coverage, which stands in the highest tradition of American journalism, and will vigorously defend against this baseless lawsuit in court.”

“Yeah, Don, it’s right in front of us,” Honig said, then added “This lawsuit is a real threat to Fox News. This thing has real teeth.”

Honig and Lemon then broke down the suit, and what the plaintiffs need to prove:
