FOX News Scores Major Legal Victory Against Former ‘Disinformation Czar’ Nina Jankowicz

Do you remember Nina Jankowicz? She is the singing left-wing loon that the Biden Administration wanted to embed in the Department of Homeland Security as a ‘disinformation’ czar.

Jankowicz sued FOX News, singling out a handful of hosts who criticized her on the air. Jankowicz claimed it was defamation.

Now a judge has thrown out her case, in a major win for FOX and a big blow for Jankowicz.

Jankowicz, a specialist in Russian disinformation, was the former executive director of the Department of Homeland Security’s now-defunct Disinformation Governance Board.

For her part, Jankowicz is still pushing the disinformation narrative about social media. Watch:
