Hunter Biden has taken legal action against Fox News, alleging that the network violated New York's "revenge porn" law by airing private photos of him without consent, as per court documents.

 

 

Here's What They're Not Telling You About Your Retirement

In the lawsuit filed on Sunday in a New York court, it is claimed that the Fox News network breached the state's revenge porn law by showcasing intimate images without Biden's authorization.

 

According to the lawsuit submitted to New York's Supreme Court, Fox allegedly shared these personal images with its massive audience during an episode titled "The Trial of Hunter Biden: A Mock Trial for the American People" in October 2022 with the intention to embarrass and harass him while tarnishing his image.

The legal action seeks compensation for damages in accordance with state law.

 

 

The miniseries, which was taken down by Fox after the president's son, age 54, threatened legal action in April over the matter, was aired on the streaming service Fox Nation and displayed nude images of Biden, some of which are reportedly still available on certain platforms.

 

Biden's legal representatives have asserted that the unauthorized use of his image, name, and likeness occurred in images portraying him in various states of undress or engaging in intimate activities.

 

This development comes as Massachusetts implemented a new and comparable "revenge porn" law on Monday, making it the 49th state to outlaw such actions, with South Carolina remaining the only state without such provisions.

 

In response to the lawsuit, Fox has labeled it as "entirely politically motivated" and lacking in substance, highlighting the fact that Hunter Biden did not raise concerns until April.

 

Despite removing the program shortly after receiving the legal threat, the Rupert Murdoch-owned television network maintained that Hunter Biden, a public figure under scrutiny in multiple investigations and now a convicted felon, had a delayed reaction to the airing.

 

Hunter Biden's legal team recently filed court documents in Delaware seeking a retrial following his conviction on three felony gun charges on June 11 for allegedly providing false information on a federal background check related to drug use in the procurement of a firearm.

 

"FOX News has dutifully reported on the notable events concerning Mr. Biden's actions, in accordance with the First Amendment, and remains steadfast in defending its rights in court," Fox declared.

 

Additionally, the president's son is set to face federal tax charges in California in an upcoming legal proceeding.
