Biden’s lawyers have claimed “unlawful commercial exploitation” of his image, name and likeness took place in images depicting him close to or in the nude or engaging in sex acts.
It arrives as a new and similar “revenge porn” law went into effect Monday in Massachusetts, now the 49th state to prohibit revenge porn, leaving South Carolina as the only state to not outlaw “revenge porn” actions.
Fox, however, called the suit “entirely politically motivated” and “devoid of merit,” pointing to how Hunter Biden “did not complain” until April.
“The program was removed within days of the letter, in an abundance of caution, but Hunter Biden is a public figure who has been the subject of multiple investigations and is now a convicted felon,” the Rupert Murdoch-owned television network said in a statement.
Hunter Biden’s lawyers filed court papers last week in Delaware seeking a new trial following his June 11 conviction on all three felony gun charges for allegedly lying on a federal background form about drug addiction in order to obtain a firearm.
“Consistent with the First Amendment, FOX News has accurately covered the newsworthy events of Mr. Biden’s own making, and we look forward to vindicating our rights in court,” Fox says.
