Speaking at the annual White House Correspondents\u0027 Association dinner, Joe Biden referred to \u0022truth buried by lies,\u0022 in an apparent reference to false conspiracy theories that his 2020 election win was the result of a massive voter fraud.
Earlier this month, Fox Corp settled a defamation lawsuit by Dominion Voting Systems for $787.5 million in a case that centred around Fox’s false claims that the 2020 presidential election had been manipulated in favour of Biden.
But the deep partisanship that has washed across American politics in recent years has at times turned the light-hearted dinner, known in Washington as “the nerd prom,” into a tense affair. Before the dinner began, Biden held a private meeting with the family of Evan Gershkovich, the Wall Street Journal reporter who was arrested on March 30 in Russia and subsequently charged with espionage. The U.S. government has said he is being wrongfully detained.
