Man Accused of Inciting Capitol Riot Exposes Fox to Legal Peril

Tucker Carlson promoted a conspiracy theory about a man named Ray Epps who urged protesters to enter the Capitol on January 6.
Epps has not been charged, but remains under investigation and has received death threats due to Carlson's false claims.
Epps and his wife have gone into hiding and plan to sue Fox News for defamation over the conspiracy theory spread on its programs.
The potential lawsuit adds to the legal troubles Fox already faces over false election claims made on its shows.
Epps' case could become another legal complication for Fox like the Dominion Voting Systems suits.
