CNN —Fox Corporation on Friday said its top lawyer, Viet Dinh, will exit the company in a significant shakeup to its corporate ranks in the aftermath of the company’s historic $787 million settlement with election technology company Dominion Voting Systems.
Dinh is the latest senior executive to depart after the historic Dominion settlement.
Days after Fox settled the lawsuit with Dominion early this year, the company fired its star prime time host, the right-wing extremist Tucker Carlson.
Dominion is just one of several high-profile lawsuits Fox has settled this year over its airing of false election conspiracy theories in 2020.
In June, the network settled a lawsuit brought by former producer Abby Grossberg for $12 million.
