Hunter Biden has threatened legal action against Fox News for exploiting his addiction to defame him and target his father, President Joe Biden.

His legal team sent a letter demanding retractions, corrections, and on-air apologies for misrepresenting him, alleging collaboration with individuals supporting Trump and Russian sympathizers.

A lawsuit is anticipated to be filed soon, according to The Daily Beast. Hunter Biden informed the publication, “I’m not saying my addiction is an excuse for my bad behaviour.”

He continued, “What I’m saying is that my addiction is not an excuse for them to dehumanize me – and in doing so dehumanize everybody from the addict that you pass on the street, to the one that you live with.”

The potential lawsuit’s discovery phase is expected to exceed the intensity of the Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit settled by Fox News for $787 million.

It revealed a discrepancy between the network’s public and private communications, with prominent figures contradicting their public stance on Trump’s election fraud claims.

The potential lawsuit by Hunter Biden is expected to have a discovery phase more intense than the Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit against Fox News, which settled for $787 million due to spreading misinformation.

Former President Trump’s cybersecurity agency declared the 2020 election as the most secure in American history. The lawsuit revealed a discrepancy in Fox News’ public and private messaging, indicating different views from top personalities in private while supporting Trump’s election fraud claims on air.

Hunter Biden noted that defamation lawsuits may reiterate harmful claims during legal processes but expressed confidence that this lawsuit would not revive controversies like his past substance use.

Fox News responded by referencing a previous statement and highlighting Hunter Biden’s public figure status, mentioning ongoing investigations and admissions of misconduct, asserting their constitutionally protected coverage of him.

Fox News defended their coverage by citing accurate reporting on events and the indictment of an FBI informant related to claims about Hunter Biden.

Hunter Biden’s legal team insisted on a retraction, disputing congressional investigation claims and criticizing Fox News for not disclosing the informant’s deceit.

The story of Hunter Biden’s laptop, dubbed “the laptop from hell,” surfaced on social media three and a half years ago, involving a computer repairman in possession of private materials.

Hunter Biden expressed dismay over the circulation of private images depicting his struggles with addiction.
