They have won cases in the courts. Years ago a husband and wife team from a Fox station in Florida did a report on the abuses found at farms. Fox bosses rewrote the report. The 2 reporters refused to air the doctored report on TV so Fox fired them and Fox eventually won the case in court, which amounted to saying that Fox reporters are obliged to lie or they can be fired, that case was Monsanto v Fox.

Fox has won other cases in court by claiming it is not a news network, it is an opinion network so people should not believe what they see on Fox. I don't have the name of that court case but it happened.
