form of a TV series is coming to Max over the next decade, setting an entirely new cast for the trio fans have come to know and love. But “The Tonight Show” Jimmy Fallon offered a first-look at that cast on Wednesday — which apparently includes Marjorie Taylor Greene.OK, obviously, Fallon didn’t get crazy early access to the actual new cast of “Harry Potter.” In the segment, he simply fan-casted a few of the roles based on lookalike photos.

Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor Fox Corp. has put increasing amounts of money behind news and sports in recent years. But that doesn’t mean the company is completely free of drama. A landmark $787.5 million settlement made Tuesday between Fox and the voting-technology company Dominion Voting Systems does not end what is likely to be a period of tumult for the owner of Fox News Channel and the Fox broadcasting network. The payment to Dominion to keep an explosive investigation into how Fox News disseminated conspiracy theories related to the 2020 presidential election out of the public sphere does nothing to alleviate another wave of scrutiny likely to come from another, similar lawsuit.

First Amendment implications.Fox is accused of defaming Dominion’s immediately following the 2020 presidential election, when some of the network’s guests and hosts suggested that the Denver company’s voting machines had been hacked or compromised. The network has stridently denied any wrongdoing, saying it was merely reporting what was being said by newsmakers – including Donald Trump and his shrinking circle of lawyers, including Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani – who were pushing the unfounded claims.Dominion scored a series of early victories in discovery and pre-trial filings, from embarrassing revelations about behind-the-scenes discord at the network’s promotion of zany election conspiracy theorists down to the sloppy “discovery misconduct” of Fox’s lawyers on the eve of trial.

one of the audio recordings that came to light in a pre-trial hearing this week involved a Trump campaign official admitting that when the Secretary of State of Georgia audited Dominion voting machines, the findings came “pretty darn close” to the machines’ count, and that “there weren’t any physical issues” with them. In another recording, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump’s former lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, purportedly told Fox host Maria Bartiromo that he and his team had no evidence of voter fraud.

the Los Angeles Times, and it wasn’t his only rebuke of the defense: Davis also said during Wednesday’s pretrial conference that he was considering sanctions against network lawyers for not properly disclosing that Rupert Murdoch was has an executive chair role at Fox News.The existence of the tapes came to light last week in a separate civil action filed against Fox News by Abby Grossberg, a former Maria Bartiromo producer. Grossberg is separately suing the network for discrimination and wrongful termination.In that lawsuit, the plaintiffs presented taped conversations with Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell that were recorded before and after appearances on Bartiromo’s show in November 2020.

Dominion Voting Systems and Fox attorneys squared off in the next chapter of the landmark defamation case on Tuesday, as each side is seeking a judge’s ruling that would deliver a victory and perhaps forestall a trial.

Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that a grand jury heard the recording between Trump and the late Georgia House Speaker David Ralston. In the recording, Trump pushed for the speaker to call a special session to overturn President Joe Biden’s win in Georgia.This revelation of a third audio recording wrote the jokes themselves for Kimmel’s monologue.“Basically, Trump tried to order the presidency over the phone like it was a stuffed crust pizza,” Kimmel said.Kimmel mentioned this might be the last week of Trump being an “un-indicted man,” as the former president is facing legal challenges in New York, as well. The Manhattan district attorney’s office is investigating hush-money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels.“We have prosecutors in New York indicating that criminal charges are likely for Trump in the Stormy Daniels hush money case,” Kimmel said.

Saturday Night Live went with the week’s biggest media stories for its cold open: the revelations from Dominion Voting Systems bombshell filing in its defamation lawsuit against Fox News. Watch a clip below.

since it filed suit in November 2021.Dominion says Fox defamed it by allowing guests like attorney Sidney Powell and Trump advisor Rudy Giuliani to repeatedly appear in the weeks after the Nov. 2020 election, suggesting that Dominion’s software was compromised to digitally tilt the election to Biden.A necessary pillar of any defamation case is showing “actual malice” – meaning the plaintiff must be proven to have known it was spreading harmful untruths.

Fox News hosts and executives, including Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham, did not believe Donald Trump’s election fraud claims in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election, but the network nevertheless amplified the conspiracy theories as it worried about losing viewers to Newsmax, according to filings from Dominion Voting Systems made public on Thursday.

A New York appellate court declined to toss out Smartmatic’s defamation lawsuit against Fox News and personalities including Lou Dobbs and Maria Bartiromo.

Trump sketch,” Teller says as Peyton Manning. “Way to mix it up!” The skit made fun of the politically motivated direction the show has taken in past seasons, along with the recent exit of the show’s most beloved cast members.Veteran cast members Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant, Pete Davidson, and Kyle Mooney all made their final SNL appearances on the show’s 47th season finale in May.

It’s easy,” the ad promises.

Jenny McCarthy stands by her decision to not walk offstage in protest when Rudy Giuliani appeared on “The Masked Singer” earlier this year.

too open about the struggles of finding new lawyers. Otherwise, Rudy Giuliani might volunteer for the job.Fallon’s words came in response to reports this week that, following the FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago — which resulted in the seizure of 11 boxes of classified documents Trump took from the White House — Trump is struggling to put together a new team of lawyers to help him through the impending investigation.

The FBI descending on former president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago property, searching it and removing at least a dozen boxes on Monday, continued to fascinate “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert during his second-to-last show of the week.On Thursday, Colbert once again dove into the topic that has been featured in at least three of his monologues so far.“As we continue to learn more details about the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago earlier this week, it does not look good for former president Velveeta Voldemort,” Colbert said, opening his show with his latest nickname for Trump.“The former president and his minions have tried to play the victim card here saying, ‘Why he’s just a simple country club owner, and that this whole investigation is a nothing burger,’” Colbert said, doing a slightly Southern accent. “But it’s beginning to look like the investigation is a ‘Something Royale with Cheese.’ Now I’m not gonna get my hopes up.

Newsweek, the search of Trump’s resort “was deliberately timed to occur when the former president was away” and was “based largely” on the information from that currently anonymous informant. On Tuesday night, Fallon lightly implied that it was former vice president Mike Pence who had given the FBI the password to Trump’s safe, which he claimed was also taken.But the next night, Fallon had a few more concrete guesses.

Some men are born great. Some have greatness thrust upon them. And some men seek great positions to avoid legal consequences. According to sources close to Donald Trump, he’s the latter this time around.

President Donald Trump wanted to get to the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 – even grabbing the steering wheel of the presidential limousine and lunging at his head of security when he was told he could not go, she said.Trump was also told that the crowd at his rally at the Ellipse ahead of the Capitol riot had guns and other weapons, Hutchinson said. She testified that Trump said «something to the effect of, 'I don't effing care that they have weapons.

This story is developing …Previous Hearings:Day 5 on June 23 included testimony showing that Trump pressured on his own attorney general’s office to overturn the 2020 election – an effort one dissenting Justice Department official called a “murder-suicide pact.” The committee was expected to hear from a documentary filmmaker Alex Holder, who chronicled the final six weeks of the Donald Trump presidency, but Holder’s appearance was delayed.

A hoarse and angry Rudy Giuliani decried the downgrading of charges to misdemeanors in the Staten Island slapping incident, saying he felt as if “a boulder hit me” at the supermarket. Video showing the suspect backslapping Giuliani is “a little deceptive,” the 78-year-old former Trump lawyer said.
