Hunter Biden again abandoned a lawsuit against Fox News, which accused the network of using “Revenge Porn” linked to his famous laptop in his portrait of the former President’s son in a 2022 streaming series.
The lawsuit, filed last October, accused Fox of violating New York’s civil rights law by disseminating Biden’s sexually explicit content in a six-part miniseries entitled “Hunter Biden’s judgment”-a fictional account of a room procedure that never took place.
The series, published on the Fox Nation platform, included material from the content of Biden’s laptop, which became the subject of a series of research reports published by The Post before the 2020 presidential election.
“We are pleased to follow now that Hunter Biden has voluntarily removed this case Meritless, who turned out to be nothing more than a politically motivated acrobatics,” said a Fox News spokesman in a statement.
Fox News is owned by Fox Corp – Sister Company of the Post Corporate Corp.
This was the second time Biden has begun legal procedures against the network and then supported. He first threatened with Sue in April 2024, leading Fox Nation to quietly eliminate the series of his library.
A lawsuit followed in July, only to be withdrawn weeks later. The case of October, which was officially dismissed on Friday, cannot be refiled.
Although Biden’s legal team has not offered any public explanation to abandon the lawsuit, a recent loss in court – which has not been able to transfer the case of federal jurisdiction to the state – could have played a significant role in the decision.
The publication has sought comments from Hunter Biden.
In his initial presentation, Biden claimed that Fox News had crossed a legal line by sending private and sexually explicit images of him, claiming that the series was a form of revenge porn and that it was “completely fictional.”
The complaint accused the network of exploiting Biden’s image “through a form of treatment different from the dissemination of news or information.”
Fox, on the other hand, defended the program as a protected by virtue of the first amendment.
“This demanded demand politically does not have merit,” the network said last year.
“The basic complaint comes from a 2022 streaming program that Mr. Biden did not complain until he sent a letter in late April 2024. The program was eliminated on the days of the letter, with great care.”
Fox added that Hunter Biden “is a public figure who has been subject to multiple investigations and is now a convicted felon.”
“In line with the first amendment, Fox News has accurately covered the events worthy of Mr. Biden’s own manufacture and we hope to claim our rights in court.”
Hunter Biden has faced a series of legal problems, including tax and weapons charges. He was sentenced last year for three criminal counts related to the lie about his drug use when he bought a firearm.
The series “The Trial of Hunter Biden” was extracted from the contents of a portable hunter who allegedly came out in a repair workshop in Delaware in 2019.
The reports on the portable publication were found widespread on the main technological platforms, including Twitter and Facebook, which limited the scope of the story under the justification that could be based on “hacked materials”, a claim that later proved false.
The laptop contained tens of thousands of emails, personal messages, financial records and videos, some of which showed that Biden was engaged in the illicit use of drugs and explicit activity.
These materials became a point of view in the political debate around the bias of the media, censorship and business treatment of the Biden family.
