Newsmax Drops Fox Antitrust Litigation

Newsmax has dropped its antitrust complaint against Fox Corp. In a notice of voluntary dismissal last week with the U.S. District Court for Southern Florida (docket 25-cv-81091), Newsmax said it was dismissing its claims without prejudice, meaning it's leaving the door open for refiling. Newsmax had a Thursday deadline to refile its suit -- alleging monopolization of the right-leaning pay-TV news space -- after it had been dismissed for procedural errors (see 2509050007).
