Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. Is Investigating Fox and BeiGene and Encourages Investors to Contact the Firm

NEW YORK, July 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized shareholder rights law firm, is investigating potential claims against Fox Corp. (NASDAQ: FOX, FOXA) and BeiGene Limited (NASDAQ: BGNE). Our investigations concern whether these companies have violated the federal securities laws and/or engaged in other unlawful business practices. Additional information about each case can be found at the link provided.

Fox Corp. (NASDAQ: FOX, FOXA)

In the wake of the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election, Dominion Voting Systems sued Fox for defamation. Dominion’s lawsuit alleges that Fox defamed Dominion’s business by endorsing, repeating or broadcasting a series of “verifiably false yet devastating lies about Dominion.” Dominion claims that various statements that were made on FOX News, including that Dominion committed election fraud by rigging the 2020 election, that Dominion’s software and algorithms manipulated vote counts in the 2020 election, that Dominion was founded for the purpose of rigging elections, and that Dominion paid kickbacks to government officials who used its machines, were defamatory and false. Dominion and Fox eventually agreed to settle the case for $787 million.

Beginning in February 2023, specific details emerged of internal discussions at Fox in the wake of the 2020 election, revealing that Fox’s senior leaders understood that claims to the effect that Dominion and other entities had rigged the 2020 election were false. As a consequence, Fox faces significant potential legal liability.

As a result of ongoing revelations about Fox’s legal exposure in the Dominion lawsuit, Fox’s Class A stock has declined from a closing price of $37.03 on February 17, 2023 to a closing price of $32.52 on March 15, 2023, a 12% decline. Fox’s Class B stock has declined from a closing price of $34.22 on February 17, 2023 to a closing price of $29.83 on March 15, 2023, a 12% decline.
