(KRON) – California Governor Gavin Newsom has filed a $787 million defamation lawsuit against Fox News.
Per the lawsuit, the publication and host Jesse Watters manipulated a video to falsely show that Newsom lied about a phone call with President Donald Trump.
The President told the media that he and Newsom had a phone call “a day ago” on June 10, where Trump claimed to inform Newsom he was doing a “bad job.” Trump also claimed, “Los Angeles would be burning right now,” if he had not deployed the National Guard.
Newsom took to his X to say that never happened. “There was no call. Not even a voicemail. Americans should be alarmed that a President deploying Marines onto our streets doesn’t even know who he’s talking to.”

Two years ago, Fox News agreed to pay $787.5 million to Dominion Voting Systems. The publication settled a similar defamation lawsuit over false election claims.
