Family of deceased Ukrainian journalist Kuvshynova to sue Fox News [View all]
The family of 24-year-old Ukrainian fixer and journalist Oleksandra Kuvshynova, who was killed in March 2022, has filed a lawsuit against the US television company Fox News.
Source: Business insider
Details: The lawsuit was filed in the New York State Supreme Court by Kuvshynova's parents and Shane Thomson, a security adviser at SEPAR, a UK security agency that was contracted by Fox News at the time.
The lawsuit accuses the broadcaster of negligence for sending a team of journalists working under contract to Fox News into an active combat zone despite numerous warnings from local officials and a security consultant who advised them not to do so.
Oleksandr's father believes that his daughter was unnecessarily put in danger.
